About

In the initial class, the instructor will discuss the basic concepts of turning, using the modern pen as a model. Students will use the drill press to prepare their turning blanks.

Then, depending on the experience level of students in the class, the instructor will work out a schedule so that each student gets sufficient lathe time and one-on-one attention to complete a pen. Some students will continue working that afternoon, after a one-hour break for lunch, while others will come back the next day for their turning time.

Details:

• Beginners are welcome. But before the class you must attend our free, one-hour Orientation to the Woodshop class. Multiple dates are listed on the Woodshop calendar.
  
• All tools and materials will be provided, with the materials fee included in the basic fee.
• Bring a sack lunch or plan to go out for lunch during the break.
