Nick Kary has spent a lifetime making, teaching and writing. Over the past forty years he has developed his skill set as a craftsman and designer of fine furniture from workshops in London, Mexico and Devon. Formerly an associate lecturer at Plymouth University and Schumacher College, Nick also teaches furniture making courses from a community workshop in Totnes.
