Brookfield Craft Center is pleased to welcome legendary woodturner Jimmy Clewes to our turning studio for a full-day demo. Jimmy will share his outstanding techniques with turning enthusiasts, and allow them to get an up-close look at his bag of tricks on the lathe. Lunch is included during a mid-day break. Saturday, May 7 9a – 5p: space is limited to 25 participants.
Work on new woodturning skills with talented craftsmen Jim Degen and Keith Tompkins. Space in each class is limited to 6 students, so sign up soon to save your spot.
This class is for students who have recently taken a beginning level class and want to continue with bowl turning, or students who have turned in the past. All aspects of bowl turning will be covered: lathe safety, wood preparation, tool selection and use, basic design, sanding and finishing. A great way to brush up on your woodturning skills!
We have a variety of classes available for everyone, beginner to expert, at Brookfield Craft Center. We want to know what interests you most so we can serve you better in the future.
