I offer woodturning classes covering everything from basics to advance techniques such as hollowing, texturing, etc.  I've taught hundreds of students over the past fifteen years ranging in age from 7 to 80+.  I have three objectives in all of my classes and so far I have a 100% track record:

1. Everyone will work safely
2. No one will leave without a completed project even if it means staying longer to accomplish
3. We strive to have fun

Classes are taught in my comfortable 900 square foot shop, with 6 lathes so that each student gets their own.  I provide all tools, equipment, wood, and safety gear for all classes; however, if you have your own tools, bring them and I'll show you how to sharpen and use them to get optimal results.
