Woodturning Magazine

In issue 416 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Les Symonds, who welcomes you to the issue; and looks at designs and methods for making small lamps.

In Projects, Andy Coates makes a wooden Christmas cracker; Ger Vervoort turns a jar with a locking lid; George Watkins turns a cone-shaped box; Andrew Potocnik creates a sculpture from a cracked piece of red gum; Ian Woodford makes a wine caddy; Rick Rich makes a set of fish sticks; Sue Harker turns a bowl from a square blank; and James N. Duxbury creates an attractive fan of leaves from bandsaw off-cuts.

In our Techniques section, Richard Findley turns heart-shaped boxes; Mike Darlow shows you how to turn coves without catches; and Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions.

In Features, we meet Julian Williamson, who has overcome the challenges of losing several fingers to develop a creative style of his own through colouring techniques; we suggest woodworking books to add to your Christmas wishlist; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury shows he cares with thoughtful turned gifts.

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 416!
