I’m indebted to the following people for their help and support over the years:
Ros Thomas - for supporting me whilst I was getting things together when I was starting up - also for the poem on the home page;
Paul and Alyson Hawes of Malvern for loads of things, not least workshop space from when I started in 1990 to 1996 and supporting me whilst I was developing the current model. Oh, and not forgetting the several thousand gallons of tea over the years!
Chris Wilkes for years’ of advice on how to do things, make things, where to get machinery from and all round support.
Peter McCoy for help with design of the nameplate.
Chris Basset for help and suggestions for this site.
Also thanks are due to the musicians who use my instrument. It’s quite an unbelievable buzz to hear musicians play music you love to listen to on an instrument which started its life as a picture in the mind’s eye.
Many thanks to all of you!
