Michael and Cynthia Gibson,   Phone 404-803-1438,

Michael's love of woodworking began at an early age.  As a young man, he spent long hours as a shipwright’s apprentice building wooden yachts on the banks of the River Crouch in his native England.  After moving to the US the age of thirty, Mike began a career as a finish carpenter and later a builder. Mike enjoys boating, hiking, fencing, photography and racing cars.  In 2004 (after selling his racing car) he began exploring the world of woodturning. When sufficiently bitten, Mike bought a Powermatic lathe and taught himself to turn. Now the workshop rivals the paddock. Michael enjoys working with unique burled timber. He now turns full time and is constantly challenging himself with new projects. Mike is a proud member of the Chattahoochee Woodturners, the American Association of Woodturners and the Georgia Association of Woodturners.

Michael and Cynthia's work has been featured in American Woodturner, Woodturning Design, Creative Wood New Zealand and Woodturning Magazine, UK.
