About Al Burgun

With over 40 years of experience, Al's journey into woodturning began in high school, where he learned the basics in a woodshop class. His passion grew into a serious hobby, and after retiring in 2002, he refined his craft through advanced training at the "Hands on Woodturners" club in Beverly Hills, FL, and by attending the Florida State Woodturners symposium.

A Note From Al Burgun

I create one-of-a-kind geometric shapes that are both artistic and functional, emphasizing the natural beauty of wood. My work is characterized by an evolving process where the character of the wood often guides the final shape.
