Gary Rance (UK) burr oak bowl 6x11cm. SignedOn receiving the small bowl, I decided to keep it as close to Ray’s original design. I put myself in his shoes and asked myself what would Ray do if he was asked to do the same. By adding two small beads to the edge of the bowl, it gives the bowl added interest without detracting from the simple, clean design. I have many fond memories of Ray but if I had to choose one, it would be when we used to demonstrate at Shepton Mallet for Axminster Power Tools.I remember sitting around the table with some extremely well-known woodturners, spending the evening with a few glasses of wine just talking and listening to Ray’s many stories. He had a fantastic memory, he could remember everyone’s name, what year they first met and where. He was certainly a one off and someone I will never forget.The Ray Key Collaboration Auction
