230 Turning Club Meeting - 2nd July 2011.

The challenge for this week was to create a box - a strange Woodturning term considering the pieces produced ...

There were many variations on this theme. Some with finials, with perforations, with threaded lids, with spiralling. Some coloured, some textured or inlayed.

Allen Atkins created boxes which were 'not round'. Chris Humberstone created a giant box which dwarfed the chair created by Roy. Turners with upto 18 months experience were very well represented.

Roy Boulton, Allen Atkins & Alan Day demonstrated techniques. Roy created the Eucalyptus finches box, round balls in yew and a light pull.
