Woodshop Lathe 101: Basics will introduce/re-introduce you to the lathe, including shop rules and general expectations, and wood working safe/best practices.

This class includes both lecture/demonstration time and hand-on tool experience. Specifically, the class will focus on turning between centers,using the carbide tipped "easywood" turning tools, safety, and tool sharpening.

This class is the pre-requisite for just about all subsequent lathe classes, including both wood and resin projects. Upon completion, you will be able to use the lathes on your own.
