Woodworkers Fighting Cancer

We've found out about a passionate woodworker called Marc Spagnuolo. Also known as the Wood Whisperer, he posts a lot of How-To carpentry videos online. 

But the thing that has motivated us to post this is because Marc and his Wood Whisperer colleagues have raised more than $80000 for cancer charities by various woodwork-related projects they have organised since 2010. 

This is one of many examples of how woodworking brings people together positively to make things and do things like this charitable cause. To read more about Marc and the charity project, you can visit his website here - Wood Whisperer

Westgate-On-Sea by John Betjeman

Like woodwork, poetry is a craft.

We've found a John Betjeman poem, Westgate-On-Sea, that mentions woodwork. Betjeman, who looks happy in the photo below, was an English poet, the UK's Poet Laureate from 1972 until his death in 1984 - the year after Gerrymet began as a tooling and saw blades supplier.

On this balcony I stand,
White the woodwork wriggles round me,
Clocktowers rise on either hand.
