Students will learn the fundamentals of woodturning a spindle by practicing four forms: bead, cove, vee, and tapers. Each student will be provided with practice material to play around with shape and one hardwood blank to turn their finished tool handle. For a tool, the instructor will provide a tool steel option (driver extension that accepts hex bits as well as a long phillips bit to make a screwdriver), or students are welcome to bring in any tool they want to re-handle. The first day will be practicing the different forms as we make our tool handle. The second day will be focused on sanding and finishing techniques. No previous woodturning or power tool experience is required.
The materials fee is $30 and is included in the admission cost.
