Join us, Thursday February 18th, for another virtual Show & Tell Gallery.  All WGNC members and their guests are welcome to spend an evening with fellow woodturners as we continue to explore and share members' projects, ideas, issues and yes, even those shop disasters.. 

The forum is intended for all levels of woodturners and is a safe and respectful place to solicit input and advice, regardless of your experience level. So, come join us for this enjoyable interactive session.

Have a beautiful burl – or keep thinking about buying one – but you aren't sure how to take it from raw form to finished artwork? In this demonstration we will take three different burl shapes and show the progression from raw burl form to an "obvious" stopping point, ready for final turning and finishing. It may be finishing "just like a bowl," or "just like a vase," and so forth. The idea is to see as many options as possible to help as many woodturners go from bump on the side of a log to finished piece as possible.

  • Thursday Jan. 14th
  • Zoom session opens at 6:15 PM
  • Business meeting begins at 6:45 PM
  • Demonstration begins at 7:00 PM

Do you find it challenging to remount your work for final finishing? Have you been stumped when faced with remounting an otherwise finished piece for a touch-up or modification? If so, join us for an informative demonstration on vacuum chucking application for woodturning.
