You may sign up online for Spring classes now.  If you would like to visit a class to see whether it would be something you’re interested in you may call me to make arrangements.  (See Contacts page.)  Wednesday classes begin on February 2.  I teach every other Wednesday.  Classes are three hours long and begin at 2 pm and 6 pm.  I will be teaching every Thursday morning from 10 am to 1 pm beginning on February 3.  Visitors are most always welcome.

The classroom at ACC used to be the locker room for Broad Street High School.  We've had a lot of fun there.

Spring 2022 Classes

 

 There are two sessions of Introduction to Woodturning being offered this Spring.

Here are the results of the first night of spindle turning. We all turned mallets from green white oak. The one on the left is still waiting for finish.

This Spring I will be teaching a workshop focusing on sharpening, tuning, and using chisels and hand planes on January 28, 29, and 30. I’ve given a detailed description of the workshop on the main page of this website. If you are interested in sharpening other wood working tools I will make every effort to address the interests of each student.

Also this Spring I’ll be teaching a hand tools class making Presentation Boxes like those pictured above. The class will run for 6 Mondays from 6:30 to 9:30 beginning February 28 (skipping March 14 for Spring Break). There is also a longer description of this class on my main page.
