Learn how to transform blocks of wood into beautiful, hand‐turned works‐of‐art. Using a lathe and traditional hand tools, you will be introduced to the two basic forms of woodturning (spindle and bowl turning). Topics will include safety, operation of a lathe, mounting the wood, proper sharpening and use of tools, and finishing of the turned object. Through technique demonstrations and hands‐on practice, learn to utilize the lathe to create decorative and/or functional turnings – and create your own unique turned wooden treasures. Each participant will have the opportunity to turn a top, bud vase, pen, and bowl during the workshop.

This is a three day workshop. Each day will begin at 9:00 am and end at around 4:00 pm. The workshop will be held at Intersections Wood Collaborative at 299 10th Street E., Owen Sound.

Suitable for beginner and novice woodturners

Workshop Cost: $300. Please note, a materials fee of $35 is payable to the instructor at the beginning of the workshop.
