Leon Segal
One of my hobbies is woodworking. This includes woodturning of solid & segmented turnings, some to 1000 pieces; solid and veneering; intarsia (3D inlay); furniture, frames, toys, more. I used mostly exotic and highly figured woods, with their natural colors. I design my own work, and have also made period and foreign-inspired pieces such as French provincial and oriental furniture. Some pieces took 2 years to make. My work and photos have appeared in Fine Woodworking magazine.
I do not sell my work. A 1,000 piece turned bowl sold for $1,000 at a charity auction.
