John Barany, Wood Art


The day John Barany retired from his medical practive, Deiter showed him how to ‘turn’ wood on Mario Gasperetti’s old lathe.  The rest is history.

When I was 4, I borrowed a workman’s hammer during his lunch hour and built my chair out of plaster lath.  At 8, I started making model airplanes.  At 14, I built and sailed my dinghy across Lake Coeur d’ Alene.  Thirteen years of higher education later, I got my MD and specialties and practiced medicine until 2006.  The day I retired, Deiter showed me how to ‘turn’ wood on Mario Gasperetti’s old lathe.  Making stuff is what I do now…mostly on the lathe.

IDEA is paramount. Without that miracle, I have no chance of making good work.  Design follows, then materials, then techniques developed to accomplish it.  Detail, decoration and painting continue the process.  Finally, the presentation & sales:        FINISH THE JOB!
