Open Shop is directed toward the new turner but all are welcome.  Bring a project you want help finishing.  Bring questions about methods, tools, designs or any other woodturning question.  There are seven lathes available for use.  Bring your own tools and wood or buy wood at the shop.  

We will have four sharpening stations to help you perfect your sharpening technique. There is no more important topic for the new turner (or the old ones for that matter) than sharpening. 

IF YOU WANT TO USE A LATHE

  1. YOU MUST REGISTER - REGISTRATION IS LIMITED TO 7 AFTER WHICH YOU WILL BE ON THE WAITLIST
  2. PLEASE BE THERE BY 9:00
  3. IF YOU ARE ON THE WAITLIST, WHEN A LATHE BECOMES AVAILABLE, YOUR REGISTRATION DATE WILL BE USED TO PRIORITIZE AVAILABILITY OF A LATHE

IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO USE A LATHE

YOU DO NOT NEED TO REGISTER JUST COME TO SOCIALIZE, SEE THE 10:00 DEMO, OR BUY SUPPLIES.

There will always be three or more advanced turners there to help, sharpen tools, and answer any questions.

Open Shop is free, but the rental Portable Rest Room and our coffee and doughnuts cost money.  A $20 donation would help defray expenses.

  • No charge for the session (donations for operating costs are appreciated)
