This one-day course will cover the basics of tools and techniques of wood turning, and you’ll go home the proud owner of a simple hand-turned item at the end of the day. For example, you might want to create a garden dibber or a fruit bowl. If this is your first time at wood turning, we can look at the various tools and cuts they make. We can then concentrate on one aspect to allow you to make a simple item.
My wood turning work has mainly consisted of staircase associated work and general architectural work (e.g. newel posts & spindles), but I’ve developed a passion for craft turning in varied forms over the last couple of years. I want to pass on this knowledge and help others to develop their own wood turning skills.
This is me in the workshop with a couple of recent small projects and some of bits of burr, horse chestnut and (in the back) ash that are awaiting inspiration.
Over the course of a long weekend (Friday – Monday), students receive a good grounding in the basics of woodwork.
