Since 'tis the season to send greetings from abroad, I figured I'd join the club.....Hardly the Caribbean or somewhere exoctic but I had the misfortune of having to make a trip home......

Anyways, looking for good turning supplies in the London area or Kent area.

Anyone know of anywhere that I might get Sorby tools or a good supply for wood and tools.

Cheers

Jump on the train mate:)

It's well worth the effort, the place has amazing stuff and the building itself has a lot of history. I used to spend a lot of time in London, didn't find much in the lines of woodworking or turning however visiting the shops sure gave me a lot of cabinetry ideas.
