Additional dates and times may become available. Contact the instructor with scheduling questions.In this class you will learn:- Safe and efficient cutting techniques- How to sharpen your tools (it's so much more important than you might think!)- All the steps between the fresh-cut log and the finished bowl- Basics of designAll tools and wood are provided.For beginners, the first lesson will focus on cutting technique using freshly-cut green wood. The emphasis is on building skills rather than completing a specific project. Greenwood bowls will definitely warp as they dry, but they're an important first step in learning how to turn.Intermediate turners, depending on skill level, can focus on a variety of projects or techniques in consultation with the instructor. Techniques and skills can include tool sharpening and maintenance, bowl form modifications such as integral handles or feet, surface embellishment, paint and other finishes, and carving.What to bring- The prepared greenwood turning blanks are included in the cost of the class. Please note that for intermediate students requiring dry stock or roughed dry blanks there will be a materials fee that will vary based on what is provided.- Bowl-turning tools if you have them (we can discuss proper sharpening and tool care)- Closed-toe shoes- Clothes you can get grubby in. Turning smocks are provided, or you can bring your own. Hoodies, long sleeves, and dangly jewelry are inappropriate for turning. Long hair must be tied back.- Notepad or sketchbook for taking notes. It's ok to take photos or short video clips for your own reference during class.Kids in the woodshopMotivated kids can do just about anything a grown-up can do, but in the woodshop there are some very real height-related safety issues. If you are purchasing this class for a child under 12 or for anyone under 5'2" tall please contact Kalia either before or immediately after ticket purchase to make sure she can provide a safe and appropriate booster platform. A parent or guardian must be present during the child's class. If you wait until just before the class to let me know that the student is a child or short person I may not be able to provide the necessary safety platform and I may not be able to refund the ticket price.If you have any questions please contact Kalia at kalia.kliban@gmail.com.About the instructorKalia Kliban has been a professional woodworker since the early 1990s.
