Woodturning | Issue 396
In issue 396 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Colwin Way, who welcomes you to the issue; shows us around the new woodturning school he runs with his wife, Vicki; and commemorates the life and work of his mentor and friend Geoff Manley.
In Projects, Les Symonds makes his interpretation of a trails flask; Andrew Potocnik turns an ash coppice bowl; James Duxbury turns a kit for making paper planting pots; Andy Coates replicates an antique ebony jewellery stand; Sue Harker makes a two-ring candle holder; John Pedley creates a useful woodturner’s press out of woodworm-infected sycamore and boxwood; and Kip Christensen and Rex Burningham turn a slimline pen using an entry level kit.
In our Techniques section, Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions; Richard Findley sets his first skew chisel skill-building practice exercises; Adrian Jacobs shares his tips for working with jesmonite; and Mark Palma explores the technicalities of turning larger pieces out of thin blanks.
In Features, we learn about this year’s winner of the European Tree of the Year; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury asks: ‘What should we expect from demonstrators?’.
Plus we have a sneak peek of our next issue and news from the Worshipful Company of Turners.
