Intro to the Wood Lathe w/ David

This is a beginner level class that covers the basic use of lathe tools and best practices with the lathe itself. During the three hours we will cover the elements of spindle turning and introduce some concepts of bowl turning through hands-on practice. These are two of the basic types of turning. The attendees will work on both spindles and bowls but due to the time allotted we will not create both items from start to finish. We will create a small project from start to finish that you may take home. If time permits, and there is interest, we can discuss specialized turning projects such as making pens, creating handles, and segmented turning.
