This class requires no prior woodworking experience and welcomes anyone interested in learning the basics of woodturning to make a turned wooden executive pen set (two pens will be made per student). Students will have lecture, demonstration, and shop time under the supervision of an experienced craftsman and teaching assistants. Students will learn how to safely operate the bandsaw, drill press and wood lathe to make their own custom turned wooden pen. You will be making two Presimo style pens with your material of choice: Maple, Padauk, Purple Heart, Mahogany, Walnut, or you could mix epoxy that could include combination of wood and epoxy.
