Learn the basics of CNC routing in this beginner-friendly class using NextWave CNC machines and VCarve software. You'll get hands-on experience designing and carving a custom sign, while exploring fundamental concepts like toolpaths, material setup, and safe machine operation. Perfect for those new to CNC or looking to build confidence with digital fabrication tools.
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.
Students will start by learning about proper proportions. Then you will mount a blank in the chuck, rough out the blank and begin hollowing the end grain. Students will then make a lidded box by hollowing the box and lid, fitting them together, and turning away the mounting tenons. Safety is emphasized while students sharpen the bowl gouge and scraper, mount the wood, and make the end grain hollowing cuts. After this class, students should be able to make a lidded box on their own. If you have turning tools, you are encouraged to bring them- if not, we have tools available.
