Yesterday,
November 17 the Glacier Woodturners Association from Kalispell put on a demo
for the Flathead High School shop program. Over the course of 4 class periods
many projects were demonstrated. Larry made custom file handles from a 1919
plan, Norm made mini tops, a Christmas Bell ornament and other small items,
Joanne did finials (the small tops to boxes and ornaments that look like icicles), Al turned bowls from Box Elder and Elm, while I did plates from Maple.
(see photos below).
While this
is going on Rich was playing MC, giving introductions, answering questions from
the kids and generally directing them to look at the different projects happen.
We have another demo planned for December at the Whitefish High School where we
will do similar types of work.
