Ray Key
What always struck me about Ray was the fact that he remembered everything and everyone in the world of turning, getting him on stories about turning over the years meant you would be enthralled by his tales of the great and the good in our woody world. I remember years ago at one of the early woodworking shows in London being in awe of some particularly stunning olive ash that he had made into large platters, the inside of which was completely flat, no mean task on an open grain timber like ash as you turners will know.
My tribute to Ray is turned from Walnut and I tried to keep the beautiful simple form and curve that Ray always tried and normally succeeded in doing.
