Pour les talents les plus tranchant
Depuis 2013, la bourse d'études Tormek est décernée à un étudiant, spécialisé en ébénisterie. L’objectif est de jeter de la lumière sur les jeunes talents et les encourager à investir dans leur artisanat.
Les boursiers de Tormek ont en commun que les outils tranchants ont joué un rôle important dans leur savoir-faire et leur processus de création. Nous sommes honorés de constater que Tormek a pris part au processus dans ces projets créatifs et stimulants !
The Tormek Scholarship Award 2019 in the UK has been awarded to Rachel Elston. Rachel has created a beautiful entryway table “JOVE” providing both functionality and elegance. The design won Rachel a complete Tormek Wet Sharpening System - which will prove most useful as she continues her career.
The Tormek Scholarship Award 2018 in the UK has been awarded to Dan Wall from Worcester. Dan has created a stunning table “#36” with some great detail during his time at Peter Sefton Furniture School in Upton-upon-Severn, and the prize - a complete Tormek Wet Sharpening System - will be very useful as Dan will continue to design his own pieces. Find out how this new woodworker built in the number 36 into his table and now seeks your curiosity and conversation for his work.
