Have you ever asked a question of someone and get that "DUH!" look?

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I was at a local medical center working today and I asked a former x-ray tech and now Pacs administrator......."Do you turn wood?"........I got this look that said "DUH!". He proceeded to go to the nearest computer and take me to his web page. He's an artist..........check out his art .........his name is Will Simpson and here's the link to his website. I hope this doesn't violate any TOS. I'd never do that purposely! http://www.kestrelcreek.com/

He also teaches classes. I was stunned!

[George Troy Hurlburt]

Ken you hit the jackpot, that man is an artist. You never know, it's a small woodturning world getting bigger all the time. GT

[Pat Salter]

Don't be stunned - take a class!

[Bart Leetch]

Well Ken you gota lot of learnin & catchin up to do.

[Gary Max]

Did you get a invite to come and vist. Heck you can start hanging out over at his house.
He is a outstanding turner.

[Andy Hoyt]

Lot of well known names at Kestrel Creek. A hugely talented bunch. And you have an "in" with 'em. Cool!

So, what did he say when you pulled out the Salmon Bonker? You do carry it with you, don't you?:D

[Ken Fitzgerald]

No....I didn't show him any photos or the real thing. I did mention to him that he was more of an artist than I. I did tell him I turned a mean salmon bonker, however!

[John Hart]

Just when I'm starting to feel pretty good about m'self, you show me a website that just slams me down and stomps on my face a little bit. Sheesh!:o Awesome Work!!

[David Fried]

Ken,

Just curious, what possessed you to ask the PACS administrator if he turned?

I was wondering the same thing. I think we missed part of the story!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I knew he was a woodworker and made stuff for sale at crafts shows.

[Corey Hallagan]

Kewl stuff Ken! Maybe he will have yah over for a lesson or two!

Too cool Ken! There's your hookup.;)

[Andy Hoyt]

Yup, Sawmill Creek is a now tributary to Kestrel Creek.

[Jim Dunn]

Well golly gee Ken. You running with the in crowd already. Get yourself one of them long cig holders and wave it around in the shop. (you could use you salmon bonker and put a big ole cigar in it) Stand on the diving board and preach about the working class:) Difference between an artist and newbie is an outlet for his/her art.

It is beautiful stuff, I should wish to be half that good.

[Bernie Weishapl]

That is a cool website Ken. Thanks. Very interesting stuff.

[Jim Becker]

Yea...when someone makes Kestral Creek...they are a happenin' thing in the art/turning world! His work is outstanding.

[Mike Ramsey]

Holy Kalamazoo!! Ken it looks like you need to hang out with that
feller, then after you become a Turning "Artist" we can come to
Idaho for Classes from you!!

[Cecil Arnold]

What Mike said. You did good Ken.
