About Phil Jones

Phil Jones started Wood Turning in 1982, serving a six year informal apprenticeship with a family run business specialising in hand and copy turning of various types.

Phil started Acorn Woodturning in 1988 and after a few moves is now based in a workshop in Ford in Buckinghamshire.

Phil uses his creative skills and experience to produce beautiful handturned pieces in wood.

His favourite native species of wood is Ash, because of it's natural colours and beauty.

Phil enjoys commissions such as large altar candlesticks which provided a challenge.
