Monthly Meeting Recap:

Wednesday April 20 2022 Turn like a Batty with Tom Gaston
		Tom Gaston gave us an excellent tutorial on the fundamentals of bowl turning. The focus was on which way the gouge shold approach the wood based on grain direction. The wood fibers like to be cut in a direction that they are not poked and uprooted. Pet a dog in the direction of the fur, not not against the fur. He also showed how to mount a piece to give best access for easy turning. See the Power Point presentation See Show & Tell
