Woodturning Magazine

In issue 420 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Edi-tor, Kurt Hertzog, who welcomes you to the issue; and answers readers’ questions.

In Projects, James Duxbury creates a small box turned on 11 centres; Sue Harker turns a lantern from a piece of yew; Rick Rich makes a kitchen spatula; Les Symonds turns a ‘well-aged’ oak pot embellished with copper; Andrew Potocnik creates a box inspired by a Vic Wood piece using timber from the man himself; Mark Palma makes a Morse taper cleaner; John Hawkswell turns a hollow form with pyrography decoration; Mark Palma decorates turned bowls with a stone-illusion finish; and Andy Coates beads and colours a bowl.

In our Techniques section, Richard Findley makes a box with a magnetic closure; George Watkins works with polymer clay to make a beautiful inlay of flowers and butterflies; and Alan Holtham shares his research into additional turning equipment.

In Features, we meet Elise McLauchlan who combines her love of industrial geometric shapes with the pleasure of working with Canadian maples; and Mike Stafford extols the virtues of dogs in the workshop.

We also have a sneak peek at our next issue and updates from the turning community.

All this and more in Woodturning 420!
