Saturday 30th July
On Saturday, Martin had a group of students on a Woodturning Experience Day. Some of our students received their lessons as a present from their family or friends. You can book your own lesson easily from a Woodturning Shop website or buy a Gift Card that can later be used for your booking.
Monday 1st August
Les and Natalja spent a day stocking some more wood blanks. While Les cut some blanks of different sizes, Natalja waxed, priced and put them on the shelves.
We now have more spindle and bowl blanks from English and exotic wood (ash, spalted beech, oak, padauk, purple heart and other species), including a variety of wood blanks in bags for £20.
Thursday 4th August
Another Woodturning Experience Day with four students for Martin today. A husband and wife came along for a shared experience, plus two others coming to learn indepdently.
They enjoyed adelicious lunch at the on-site coffee shop half way through the day before finishing the morning project and getting stuck into a bowl in the afternoon.
Keep tools sharp for the best possible finish off the tool, this leads to less sanding.
