Our March meeting occurred on the 5th, just before all the masks and lockdowns came into full force due to the COVID 19 pandemic. We setup 4 lathe stations at the Rivet and had 4 turners demonstrating different techniques. Attendees could go around and watch, ask questions and even try their hand at the lathe. The topics were:
- Hollowing/End Grain – hook tool, spindle gouge, square scraper
- Skew chisel
- Chucking – tenon, jam chuck; shear cut on outside of bowls
- Roughing, beads and coves
