Discover the art of spindle turning in this one-day, hands-on seminar. Under guided instruction, you’ll learn the essentials of tool selection, sharpening, and turning between centers. Bring your own lathe tools if you have them—you’ll head home with sharper skills and freshly honed tools. By the end of the day, you’ll complete two projects to showcase your work: a bud vase and a pen.
