Automated wood carvings by Tony’s great uncle Jack Walls.
Tony’s great uncle Jack (John) appeared on "Venture North" a PBS show in the early 90s for the work he did. He was one of the first people to inspire him as a child, and was one of the kindest people he knew. This is the copy of the video from a separate recording done prior to him appearing on PBS. Tony contacted PBS trying to find the footage they had, but unfortunately the show was canceled some time ago. Tony decided to go ahead and share the footage and pictures he had (from a different broadcast Jack appeared in). Make sure to take a look at the pictures in the end of the video. You'll see some working tools like a miniature drill press and wood lathe. You'll also see the work he completed after the show aired. The clothes for the carvings were made by his wife (Tony’s great aunt) Patty.
Tony has been inspired by many people. His uncle Jack was one of the firsts.
