The xTool F1 is the first portable laser engraver to include two powerful lasers in one machine. Let us show you how this compact powerhouse will engrave everything from wood and acrylic to leather and glass.
We will make sharpening easier and eliminate all the mystery and confusion. Attendees will learn how to bring a blade to razor sharp quickly and consistently. In this three hour session we will discuss and compare the various sharpening methods including water stones, natural stones, sand paper, diamond plates and stropping. We will cover sharpening by hand with as well as various power sharpening tools and methods. We will also compare sharpening jigs and their use and setup. We will also discuss bevel angles for various tools and the benefits and trade-offs of these options. This will be a combination of discussion and hands on work. Much of the time will be dedicated to sharpening, Each student will have the opportunity to sharpen some of their own planes and chisels. I've been woodworking with hand tools for 30+ years and I've used with most every sharpening system out there. Sharpening is simple when the basics are understood and the process is repeatable and fast.
Now that you have your new lathe tools, come join us to learn how to sharpen your chisels so that you can get the best performance from your equipment. You will be taught several different methods that can be used to keep your tools sharp and effective. You will be learning how to sharpen all of the basic lathe tools.

This workshop is designed for those who have recently gotten a wood lathe, or have had one for a while, and haven't gotten around to using it until now. During this workshop students get acquainted with the wood lathe and its parts and accessories. We will cover the turning process, as well as sanding and applying finish to a project while it's on the lathe. Students will also be shown a variety of turning tools and how they function. You will also be introduced to wood selection, tool selection, and tool sharpening. Students will test their skills while working on a small turning project. Students should bring suitable eye protection such as safety glasses, goggles, or a face shield. If you have problems with wood dust, a respirator or dust mask would be advisable. Also bring any wood turning tools you might have. Tools and safety gear will be provided for those who don't own them. Materials for turning will be provided.
