In me workshop
Doing the usual youtube rounds, and found probably the most stunning work I've ever seen on fine woodworking
Wow is all I can say

Clearly an absolute master of a demanding craft but for my taste the intricate and sometimes overblown marquetry often detracts from the underlying pieces. The trompe l'oeil stuff might be clever and technically outstanding but some of it looks pretty gimmicky and even ugly.
 
There is also ARYMA in Powys who do lovely contempory stuff for yachts and of course Yannick Chastang who runs courses
