Woodturning Magazine

In issue 417 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Rick Rich, who welcomes you to the issue; and turns a practical little knick-knack dish.

In Projects, Les Symonds makes a Nine Men’s Morris board game; Sue Harker turns a replacement stem for a broken wine glass; Mike Stafford makes a honey pot and dipper; Andrew Potocnik turns a canthium branch into a box; George Watkins combines burr, resin and pigment to make a unique box; Mark Palma makes a carving mallet; James Duxbury creates an oval peppermill from contrasting timbers; Sheila Gibbs uses off-centre turning to create a stylised figurine; and Andy Coates creates acorn boxes.

In our Techniques section, Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions; and Richard Findley continues his box-making series by making receptacles to hold particular items.

In Features, we meet woodturner and sailing enthusiast Andy Walters, who shares the creative projects that really float his boat; Trefor Roberts, president of the National Association of Woodworkers, reveals the first-place winners from the Art of Wood competition; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury has a New Year’s resolution for his last-ever deliberation.

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 417!
