Woodturning Magazine Issue 408 Retour à l'édition précédente

In issue 408 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Kurt Hertzog, who welcomes you to the issue; and answers readers’ turning questions.

In Projects, Les Symonds creates a hanging platter celebrating geometric forms; Andy Coates rethinks salad bowls after reading Dave Regester’s Simply Good For Salads, from issue one of Woodturning; Andrew Potocnik creates and decorates a bowl in the style of a sea urchin; Sue Harker turns an Art Deco-style four-funnel bud vase; James N Duxbury turns a container for use in ikebana flower arranging; Anthony Harris turns a four-piece chess pawn; and John Hawkswell finds a use for his timber offcuts by making lidded boxes.

In our Techniques section, Richard Findley continues his skew series by turning some wooden pens that don’t need pen kits; Mark Palma looks at turning old growth timber; and Rick Rich practises beads and coves from a 1920s book.

In Features, Alexander Thomson talks to David Szelpal about his colourful work and creative use of materials; the winners and runners-up of The Mark Baker Woodturner of the Year competition tell us how they made their award-winning pieces; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury explains why he has scaled down his turning events to smaller, local craft shows.

We also have a sneak peek at our next issue, updates from the turning community and news from the Worshipful Company of Turners.

All this and more in Woodturning 408!
