Tom, Scott & Steve with Finished Pieces
Here are 3 students with the pieces they made in my class on Thursday
3/22/2018.
Left to right. Tom, Scott, and Steve.
They were taking my "2018 Winter Woodturning Workshop"
class in my Studio in Poughkeepsie NY.
Scott was a new student. Scott very quickly became a very good turner.
Tom and Steve are both very good turners. They have taken the same
class over and over a couple of times. We just keep doing more and more
complex things. They enjoy coming to the class for fun and camaraderie.
Tom made a Vase out of Ambrosia Maple. The shape was from a photo I
took in Portugal of some pottery.
Scott made a "Natural-Edge Vase" from page 101 of Mark
Baker's "Weekend Woodturning Projects" book.
Steve made a "Burr Oak Bowl" in Maple (not Burr Oak) from
page 131 of John Hunnex's "Woodturning Forms & Materials"
book.
Future Classes
The Fall 2018 version of my "Woodturning Workshop" class
in my studio is already full. I have 2 returning students and 1 new
student.
The Fall 2018 version of my "Woodturning Workshop" class
at the Brookfield Craft Center in Brookfield CT has space available. I have
2 returning students already signed up. The class is limited to 6 students.

Scott Cutting Out the Top of the Vase
I took a couple of action shots for each student. I am just going to
present them with no commentary.
I was too busy teaching to take more photos.
Tom Hollowing Out the Inside (Lathe Stopped)
Tom is using my Hollowing Rig. For more info click
here.
Note: I have 2 of these Hollowing Rigs. Thus 2 out of 3 students in
each class can use my Hollowing Rig. I plan to getting a 3rd Hollowing Rig,
if I run into a real need for it.
