Description

Learn the basics of wood turning, and turn your first wooden plate. You will get one-on-one time at the lathe with instructor Bob Carlberg as you turn your own ambrosia wood piece. 

During instruction, there will be physical touch from the instructor as he will need to guide your hand along the lathe as you work for increased safety measures.

For further class safety, participants are asked to wear short sleeves, a high neck shirt, no jewelry, and long hair must be secured behind the head using a ponytail holder. 

Safety apparel of a dust mask, full face shield, and leather apron will be required for participants to wear during the class session and are provided.
