Paul's interest in woodworking was sparked by his father's example. Paul's particular interest in wood turning was ignited by woodworking shows on PBS stations. Threatening to build his own treadle lathe during ninth grade, his parents decided it would be best if he didn't. He received his first lathe as a Christmas present soon after. Throughout high school, Paul turned odds and ends, bowls, small furniture pieces (eg. music stand and foot stool), and other small projects. Paul began turning lace bobbins in 1999 after returning home from Moscow, Russia. Along with Jim, Paul enjoys the challenge of designing and turning bobbins.
