Bowl II: From Log to Bowl is an in-depth woodturning class designed to guide participants through every step of transforming raw wood into a beautifully finished bowl. The instructor will cover the entire process, starting with selecting and preparing a log, demonstrating how to properly cut and mount it on the lathe. Students will learn essential turning techniques, tool selection, and safety precautions to shape the bowl efficiently and effectively. Throughout the session, the instructor will provide hands-on guidance, helping participants refine their skills in hollowing, smoothing, and detailing their pieces.
As the class progresses, students will explore different finishing techniques to enhance the wood’s natural beauty, including sanding, sealing, and applying finishes for a professional-quality result. The instructor will also discuss wood drying methods and strategies to prevent cracking or warping over time. By the end of the class, participants will have a solid understanding of the entire bowl-making process, leaving with both a handcrafted bowl and the confidence to continue their woodturning journey independently.
