Glen Rundell

Windsor Chairmaker

WORKSHOP STYLE
Practical, passionate, informative.

GLEN SAYS:
I’ve always been fascinated by joinery and furniture woodwork. It’s cathartic, it’s an ability to start with or work with a medium where you have a full understanding and the chain of custody of the material being a grown tree to a finished chair on a workbench. I had to go to America to learn what I learnt and what I teach. And that’s the reason why I teach here because I’m hoping to perpetuate the skills and the craft here.
