Today, I took the Basic Bowl Turning class taught by Bill Wallace at the Raleigh Woodcraft . Excellent class for starting out. Bill is an outstanding instructor who speaks clearly and concisely and makes the whole experience fun. He covered wood structure, cutting basics, chisel selection, sharpening, demonstrated the cuts and then helped us through the process and he's just a great guy to be around. We also had some wonderful people in the class which made the day totally worthwhile.
I didn't get to finish my project. I got a little fancy with the design, seeing as I had an expert looking over my shoulder, and it took a little longer to rough out and sand, so brought it home and will finish it out.
I want to publicly thank Bill for a great class and day.
