Eli will host a workshop for up to 12 "advanced" level turners from the GHWG, TVWG and the WWWG. Participants will be able, under Eli's tutelage, to turn a couple of his favourite pieces. This is NOT a course for beginners and only well experienced and proficient turners should register for this event. Wood will be provided. Cost is $150 each. Parking is free.
Coffee & snacks will be provided throughout the day, but if you have any dietary restrictions or favourite foods you may wish to bring those for yourself. A light lunch and water/coffee will also be provided.
Participants should bring their own tools. A sharpening station will be available as required throughout the day. Each participant will turn on one of the provided lathes. Unfortunately sanding is frowned upon as there is no dust collection or ventilation system in the church.
As this is a partnered event, 4 spots are reserved for each guild. Registrants beyond the 4 from each guild will be added to a waitlist. If one guild is not able to fill up their allocation, spots will be opened up to those on the waitlist.
The event starts promptly at 9:00 so please try to arrive early to find a lathe, layout your tools and grab a coffee.
This event is a joint presentation made available by the Golden Horseshoe Woodturners Guild, the Thames Valley Woodturners Guild and the Waterloo-Wellington Woodturners Guild. We appreciate this partnership and look forward to creating more opportunities together in the future.
