This date night class is a great way for you and your partner to learn woodturning and make a turned handle project. In this class, we will start with a pretty pre-cut wood blank. We will discuss the techniques of turning the wood on a lathe to the specific sizes needed for the handle. Examples include a pizza cutter, ice cream scoop, or a cheese slicer.
This woodworking beginning class has been very popular. The project stool will have two steps, a stable platform, and the first step can be raised to form the stool into a small chair. This will make it a very handy item to place in the bathroom or kitchen to allow a young child to reach the sink or it can be put in the family room and use it as small chair made just for them. Plus, it still works as step stool for adults to reach the top shelf in the kitchen or a closet. This class will introduce you to everything you need to progress from selecting wood for a project, to preparing it for finishing. It is designed for the person who knows nothing about woodworking but wants to learn the basics. We will use the table saw, jointer, planer, band saw, and other tools, as well as offering a discussion on several hand tools, all with an emphasis on safety. This is a great class for anyone wanting to see if woodworking is for them.
In this class, we will take a comprehensive look at the process of turning a bowl. We will discuss methods of roughing out, mounting with chucks, turning, and finishing a bowl. Any and all questions during this process are welcomed. We will turn a small bowl using spur and live centers, chucks, and a friction drive. We will do our turning with traditional turning tools.
This meeting is open to anyone that has a CNC, is thinking about a CNC, or just needs help with Vectric software. We talk everything CNC and encourage you to bring in your projects, both good and bad, to tell us what you learned so others can learn from you. No preregistration is required and this is a free event.
