Originally I trained as a joiner, after four year apprenticeship I served eight months as tradesperson, before being made redundant.

Looking for a change I studied sound production that led to me going onto achieve a degree in audio technology with multi media.

After trying to get into music/media industry and being unsuccessful I had many different jobs - customer advisor, bra fitter, deli assistant, cleaner and bingo halls to name but a few.

I missed working as a joiner, having been out construction for a few years I needed to refresh my skills , this is when I started college and fell in love, with restoring furniture.

I knew after finishing college that this is what I to do, The name came to me when I was falling asleep - Turnstyle kept going round my head. 2013 was the year I started college so 13 was a special number to me.

Turnstyle13 was created,

My style is quirky and different and that's what I like, I'm all for encourging you to

Buy the weird stuff!!
