NEWMAN FURNITURE

When I left school, I enrolled in a 2 year full time cabinet making course at the London College of Furniture which I completed at the age of 18 back in the early 1990s. As there were no businesses in our area who had the need for someone with my training, I started Newman Furniture with a lot of help from my father. I set up in my parents garage with my Shopsmith which included all of the accessories... Using the garage soon became impractical so I rented a small workshop on an old pig farm. I met an interior designer by the name of David Gray at O3 Interiors and he started to give me larger and larger projects. This meant that I had to move to the workshop that I now occupy. I still have my trusty Shopsmith but it has been relegated to a corner of the workshop. It is now used as a lathe, sander and bandsaw as I have purchased more dedicated machinery to do the cutting, planing and thicknessing of timber... www.newman-furniture.co.uk, Newman Furniture cabinet makers in Camberley,..
