From looking at Youtube videos on wood turning it seems like the British have a heads up over the USA when it comes to the art at least from the point of view speaking English.

For many years it has baffled me how they made table and chair legs with the offset feet AKA cabriole leg on a lathe.
Even wiki has it wrong and the only way I have seen it done is with a band saw and a ton of work.
This English guy did it all on the lathe better than anyone I have seen.
