The turning workshop is for anyone who wants to learn to turn or wants to work with the May demonstrator, Robert Love, to turn a cube inside a cube like he demonstrates on Tuesday, May 12th. Details on the wood and tools needed for this project will be given at Tuesday's meeting. We strongly recommend that you attend the Tuesday meeting prior to attending the workshop to learn more about turning, meet members, learn what you need for tools and wood, register for the workshop, and pay your fee.
The club has 8 lathes in the workshop space they rent at a private residence east of Baldwinsville, near the new YMCA. Attendees are asked to pre-register so we know who to expect and have enough mentors available. You should bring tools and wood if you have them. The club has loaner tools.
There is a $5 fee to attend the workshop. If you are not a member, you must pay a one time, one meeting membership fee of $5 to participate. To register or for the address of the shop, please send an email to woodcny@gmail.com by Noon on May 15th.
