Whether looking to develop a turning foundation or further hone your skills, this class will be a boot camp in basics and proper technique. Students will be introduced to the lathe and all the associated tooling. Everyone will learn shaping and sharpening to the proper grind and the proper movements to produce the most perfect beads and coves. And that’s only Monday. Through demonstrations and hands-on assistance, students will walk through several spindle or long-grain projects. Upon understanding the grain direction, the class will learn how to hollow end grain and produce several end grain projects. Finally, students will be introduced to the wonderful world of face-grain bowl turning. By Friday, each participant will have the proper tools, skills, and knowledge to produce endless possibilities at the lathe.
