In this hands on class students will be shown various sharpening methods including: Dry grinding on Sorby ProEdge and Wolverine Jig, Wet grinding on the Tormek, Hand sharpening with water stones, hand sharpening with diamond stones and honing. Students may bring several turning tools and/or several bevel edge chisels to practice sharpening with.
This class can teach someone new to the lathe how to make a bowl and can help an intermediate student refine their skills. Topics that will be covered in class: proper tool rest set up, proper approach and angle for efficient cutting, differences between the three different cutters (rougher, finisher and detail), scraping, shear cutting and sharpening. Students will practice the cuts appropriate for shaping and smoothing the inside and outside using traditional tools or carbide tools. Students will turn a bowl in this class. At the end of the class students should be able to turn a bowl on their own. Students are encouraged, although not required, to bring their own tools for an easier transition of skills from class to your own shop.
Students will turn the handle for an ice cream scoop, assemble it and take the ice cream scoop home with them.
