See RV_CP_05(01-03). Lonnfors prefers simple tools that have been used historically; tools he can take care of, and mend himself. One of his axes (shown in RV_CP_05(01)) is one he has used throughout his life as a crafter. He changes the handle when needed. Electric heating, stove and geothermal heating. Only shavings that can be burnt in the stove. Lonnfors' studio is in the bottom floor of his residantal house. Lonnfors makes bespoke artecats and reconstructions of older artefacts that he wants to recreate. He also has a production. Among others, the handicraft developers of Sweden have places orders for traditional linen preparing tools and for courses. Primarily he makes applied arts, such as craft for everyday use. Exhibitions, sales, for own use, tools for courses. Also takes bespoke orders. The company Svenskt tenn, museums, and he himself sells. He can mend objects that are broken. He holds courses and lectures. Yes Museums and he gets neq customers through holding courses (his name is spread and it's a mouth to mouth spreading of the word). Lonnfors says that it's crucial and important to meet with people. It's not about merit, but the impression that affects the image of his work. Region and istitutions are also his customers. No No, not directly. Maybe through courses, but he can't say for sure. Jag kommer inte ha kursverksamhet här för förbipasserande turiser men men men det går ju absolut att ha samarbeten med ställen som där turister samlas så att säga så att man kan ha nån täljworkshop eller kortare kurser eller så där på platser där folk ändå är som en del av en upplevelse eller så har jag tänkt också för för företag och så där om man vill göra något med personalen det är ju inte turiseter då men ja. Hitta såna former. Så i framtiden kommer det kommer säkert vara mer av den varan..vad ska man säga...såna samarbeten med andra resmål eller så. Jag tror att det vore smart. (cirka 38 minuter in i intervjun). No, not more than previously mentioned. Lonnfors has had about one exhibition a year, but will probably not keep on doing that. Reason being he can't sell artecats and can't take more orders when preparing for an exhibition, and therefor the production comes to a halt. Also, he's not selling the objects at the exhibitions, but when it's over. It's a good way to show his work, but he will still make a change with his way of working. / Also, he can't see any challanges with living in a rural place, but feels it's just right for him and that he would be uninspired and not satisfied if he lived more urban. Jag är nog en ganska ognällig person som inte funderar så mycket på sånt som stör så men....men det finns en orsak till att vi letat ett hus som ligger så här...jag vill tillexempel inte ha min verksamhet i en tätare byggd stad. Det har jag inte gått igång på tanken för det skulle vara utmanande för mig.

He has both been to school -Sätergläntan, in Dalarna, Sweden - where he was allowed to skip the first year (of three), because he was so knowledgable and he has also taught himself.
