The Art of Bowl Turning with the Lathe

with Kirk Kapp

Friday, August 14, 2026, 1 PM - 4:30 PM

This class can teach someone new to the lathe how to make a bowl and can help an intermediate student refine their skills. Topics that will be covered in class: proper tool rest set up, proper approach and angle for efficient cutting, differences between the three different cutters (rougher, finisher and detail), scraping, shear cutting and sharpening. Students will practice the cuts appropriate for shaping and smoothing the inside and outside using traditional tools. Students will turn a bowl in this class. At the end of the class students should be able to turn a bowl on their own. Students are encouraged, although not required, to bring their own tools for an easier transition of skills from class to your own shop. ***If a class is Sold Out, call the store at 717-409-8173 & ask to be put on the waitlist!***
