Woodturning  |  October 2016
In issue 297 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy. In ‘Projects’ Colwin Way looks to the future of turning with his fun project project of a robot; Andy Coates makes a table lamp from a reclaimed oak post; and Ian Woodford shares some ideas for designing and making a nutcracker.
In our ‘Technical’ section Stephen Hogbin makes a bright table; Kurt Hertzog looks at making tool handles for the workshop; Ernie Conover asks what a poor turner would do without paper, putty, paint and glue; Richard Findley turns his hand to letter carving on turned works for the first time; Mark Palma looks at expanding the use of wax in woodturning; Phillip Greenwood concentrates on sanding work to a fine finish; and the Editor provides five easy step to finish your woodturning projects.
In ‘Features’, we meet Donal Ryan as he tells us of his decisions to turn his lifelong hobby into a business; Jim Christiansen and David Buskell guide us through the world of woodturning critiquing; and Jennie Starbuck talks us through her bright and beautiful lampshade.
As well as all this, we also have our usual ‘Kit & Tools’ pages, ‘Leader’ from the Editor, ‘Community news’, ‘Community letters’, as well as a sneak peek of our next issue.
All this and more in Woodturning 297!
