Turning Club - 09/Nov/2013

A 9-10in diameter sycamore bowl with a blue and green leaf design, a spalted beech bowl form with figurine, a set of miniature tools in a lidded box, a choir and a goblet with fluted stem were the items brought for display.

Bill Foster demonstrated the construction of a split form dish with colourful separators plus a demo of making animal shapes plus more...

Roy Boulton meanwhile demo'd for a number of newcomers including a bud vase in yew and a light pull in yew.

New week there will be a demo by visiting professional Richard Findley.
