When you look at his work, it’s hard to imagine that when he stepped into the shop in the summer of 2021 that he’d never run a lathe of any sort before, let alone a mill.
Since then we’ve helped him acquire multiple lathes; and he’s accumulated a mill, grinders, and various other tools. His executions are virtually flawless, and his eye for design is obvious.
Kelsey’s innate abilities were the seed that was planted in the fertile soil of Plumier, and its growth has been astounding.
Kelsey is a prolific creator and has proven to be an outstanding craftsperson and artist.
“Currently, there are few paths for people like us. We come to the crafts through the internet, but where to go from there is often unclear. At Plumier the driven will find a place where their skills will explode and a community where they will be supported on their journey in craft.”
