I'm not sure who originally said it, but it still holds true today. A turner is only as good as his/her sharpening skills. Yes, our Turning Fundamentals series touches on sharpening; however, we are hoping that this class will devote a little more ono-on-one (actually 2 on 1) time to allow the student more time to understand things like the different types of steel used in turning gouges, the different types of equipment used to ensure positive and repeatable results, the different types of grinds for the different tools in our tool roll, and other tips and tricks related to sharp turning tools.
This course is targeted at relatively new turners, or those that just don't think they are getting the most out of the tools they've already acquired. Our aim for this three hour hands-on course is to spend about 25% of the class time in a lecture/question/demo format coupled with the remaining time being spent sharpening your tools. There is a minimum of two students for this class to take place (refunds given if class doesn't take place).
If you own your own tools and already have (or are considering purchasing) the Oneway Wolverine jig and a slow speed grinder, this class is for you.
You will need your own high speed steel tools that include a bowl gouge, a spindle gouge, a spindle roughing gouge, a skew, a parting tool, and a scraper.

A 3-4 hour class where you'll start gluing up the pieces to form your bowl.
A 6-8 hour class to turn and finish your bowl.
Results: You'll leave the class with a finished bowl.

Join Jess Crow, one of the nation's leading epoxy artistic woodworking innovators, for this brand new class where you will learn how to create a river style round. This round can be used as a clock, serving tray, lazy susan or more. Once you have the concept down you will be able to take this technique and turn it into a table of any size or shape. Jess will guide students through the river style process, including how you prepare a live edge slab*, how to save not only wood, but epoxy, creating a River Style project using Jess's "more is less" method, adding custom colors and designs, selecting and pouring the proper resin, and more! Students will have the option to add the lazy susan hardware when they come back to pick up their projects.
*Note about this class. We will not be using a live edge slab, rather Jess's signature technique to conserve epoxy while having the look of a live river. During class there will be a complete walkthrough on how to build a live edge river table and a syllabus will be made available covering both techniques.
Ready to make an epoxy end table? Jess will cover using multiple Pigments, Inks, and Mica powders
in this class to create your own captivating one-of-a-kind 15" end table. Learn skills that will propel
your future epoxy projects to the next level, including the "no sanding" technique, color dispersion
methods, and how to achieve stunning edges. This is a great class to bring a friend or partner to! 2024 EDITION: Students will use multi-colored substrates for eye-popping color combinations and will have the option to add overlay material to the surface to achieve additional depth and customized look!
