Learn the basics of the Wood Lathe, one of the most popular tools in the wood shop. This class focuses on turning bowls and other hollow shapes like platters, vases, and more. This class covers creating an object from beginning to end: mounting, rounding, shaping, hollowing, sanding, finishing, and finally, removing the finished object. During this class, you learn in detail the operation of the lathe, how to use carbide shaping tools, and how to mount a blank using both faceplates and waste blocks.
Upon successful completion of this class, you receive your DIYcave Certification on the lathe and can independently start creating your own objects. No previous lathe experience necessary. One three-hour class session.
All materials and tools included.
Ages 13+ welcome. Minors may take this class if a parent/guardian is registered and attends the class with them.
No Experience Needed!
