Are there any more details?

It would be good to know some of their unique products will continue to be supported.

As I understand it it will be run as a Dual Company one Company with two names run from the Turners Retreat office.

Maybe now they will hold some stock at the factory warehouse in Bradwell, and get their prices competitive. I always felt they lost the plot some years ago, claiming to be "leading suppliers" but stocking very little and employing very polite sales staff who had very little knowledge of woodturning.
