Where:
Alaska Woodturners Symposium, Anchorage, AK
Date:
February 19-25, 2024
On February 19th & 20th I will be leading hands-on workshops for the Alaska Woodturners Association. The subject of the class will be turning a shrink box, a lidded container turned from green wood. The bottom of the box is made from a separate piece of dry wood. As the body of the box dries the bottom is captured in a groove inside and is locked in place.
On February 21-23 I will be leading a hands-on workshop for the Alaska Woodturners Association. The subject of the class will be turning bowls from green wood. We will start with whole logs and complete bowls right off the lathe. Emphasis will be placed on using green wood as a material as well as proper use and sharpening of the deep fluted bowl gouge.
On February 24-25 I will be demonstrating various subjects at the Alaska Woodturners Symposium. I will cover turning hollow forms that I cut in half, hollow and glue back together, turning a shrink box, surface embellishment as well as a few other subjects.

On March 9th I will be Demonstrating for the Mid-Maryland Wood Turners. I will be demonstrating how I turn my hollow forms without working through the small opening of the top. Essentially I make a turned lidded box and glue the lid on. I do use green wood to make this vessel and I will cover all the essential techniques to successfully accomplish this type of hollow turning.
On March 10th I will lead a hands-on workshop for the Mid-Maryland Wood Turners. The project for the workshop will be the hollow form I turned during the demonstration of the evening of the 9th.
