Here’s a lovely video interview of Curtis Buchanan describing his conscious approach to his life and work. Filmed by a group of Warren-Wilson College students.

thanks for posting that one, Elia. I hadn’t seen it before. Just spoke to Curtis a week or so ago. I call him the “happiest woodworker I know…” hope to see you in October. PF
