In order to maximize the amount of personal attention to each of my students, courses are limited to 4 students per session.  Each course will be tailored to the requirements of the participant whether just beginning woodturning or advancing skills. Each course will emphasize design, shape, form and aesthetics.

All courses will cover safety issues, sharpening, finishing and the use of basic woodturning tools. The courses are structured so that students will gain confidence in their ability and allow them to return to their workshop to further develop their artistic abilities.  I encourage students to bring along any tools as I will be pleased to provide advice on sharpening and unbiased advice on lathes, chucks and accessories.

In the advanced woodturning courses in hollow forms, the student will learn a wide variety of skills needed for free-hand turning.  Students will learn the basic set-up of turning between centers, chucking, shaping, and reverse chucking for bottom finishing. 

The fee for a 1 day course is $150.00 and includes lunch, refreshments throughout the day and all class materials. Classes start at 8:00 a.m. and end no later than 5:00 p.m.  

A $50 deposit is required to reserve your class.
