Hello everyone - first post so a bit nervous!!
I have recently been contacted by Mark Krawczyk, an American forest researcher, consultant and woodworker who is currently co-authoring a manual on coppice forestry for North America.
He is coming over to England in February, from the 15th to the 17th before coming over France to see me. He is looking to meet with coppice woodworkers, - especially those who are also actively managing coppice woodland and would be willing to share their knowledge of all types of coppice management with him.
He is coming over to Europe for his research because coppice as a form of woodland management is relatively non-existent in the USA and he would like to promote its many virtues there.
Mark has managed to raise the money to using a very innovative type of funding called Kickstarter. You can read, and watch a video about the project here http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coppiceagroforestry/dave-and-mark-write-a-coppice-agroforestry-book
Mark is also himself a very accomplished woodworker. You can view his work on his website

If you are able to assist Mark in any way with his project please contact him at

Thank you so much to anyone who can help with this.
Michael
