Woodturning

The Woodturning Committee of the Woodworkers of Central New York, Inc. (formerly the Central New York Woodturners) generally meets on the Second (2nd) Tuesday of the month.  For 2020, the meeting location will change.  We meet in the Community Room at Station 1 of the Belgium Cold Springs Fire Department, 7920 River Road, Baldwinsville, NY.  Meetings start at 6:30pm.  Each "meeting" includes a demonstration, Show & Tell session, Monthly Challenge session, and time to interact with your fellow woodturners.  Often there are raffles of wood, tools, etc.  You can also purchase various products like sandpaper, anchor seal, etc.
​The Woodworkers of Central New York is proud to be a Chapter of the American Association of Woodturners.
