We are planning a "You Turn" session on ornaments, Dec 1. We had the demo at our last meeting for this. We'll be working in the NCFS Training trailer on eight Rikon lathes. Participating members will bring their own tools and safety gear and we'll be 'helping' each other. When we meet inside the school, there are Nova, Jet, Harvey, Rikon, and Robust lathes available to test 'drive' as well as a variety of chucks. The NCFS features EasyWood tools and you may find other brand names available. I usually bring a Sorby or two, and a Thompson, a Hunter, maybe a Frog, and some Woodcraft tools depending on what the 'assignment is for the meeting
We haven't set any agendas for 2019 yet.
If you want (private) lessons-in Ayden or Winston Salem, contact Stuart Kent at the NC Furniture School. If you want to learn with the rest of us, join us at a meeting. Stuart can also discuss lathes and tools. The good folks at Klingspor also have classes and turning expertise on staff.
The Rikons will turn a 10" bowl, OBTW.
