About

This class has been postponed and will be re-scheduled again soon.

Progress to the intermediate level of bowl turning: turning a bowl that has a deeper profile and steeper sides than in the introductory class.

You will turn one bowl during this class while learning to use three types of bowl gouges, ground with different bevel angles to help you navigate the steeper and more constrained profile of the bowls and to create a deeper, flat bottom without having “catches.” You will develop an understanding of why the different grinds work and when to use which one so that you can turn independently on increasingly sophisticated bowl shapes during open studio or at home on your own lathe.
