Len Zeoli has been working
with wood since he first made his own toys as a child. Wood has always been for
him a readily available material that possesses lots of personality and
possibility. His professional career in woodworking began in 1978 when he set up
his first shop, where he taught himself cabinet and furniture making.
Not
satisfied with just buying lumber, Len immersed himself in the idea of wood as
material, falling and milling trees that would one day find their way into his
finished work. This is nowhere more true than in his bowl turning, where he has
focused on turning green wood. Many years of learning by doing have given him a
sense of how to begin at the beginning and to persist through process to a
finished piece.
Len has a special place in his life for those who want to learn
how to work with wood, and is desirous of sharing his hard earned knowledge to
help his students move in satisfying and productive directions.
