Lathe Work – Metal Spinning with Steve Ainsworth
November 9-11, 2018 |
This class will explore the ancient and relevant process of metal spinning. We will prepare wooden forms on the lathe and polish the tool that will be used to spin metal. Then we will explore the delicate “dance” required to actually spin metal. We will spin a small bowl using aluminum. The adventurous should have time to try making a Jefferson cup out of pewter or other projects. No experience in metal or wood is required, but expect to be standing for extended periods of time. Instructor: Steve Ainsworth. Cost $150 (includes materials fee). Friday [6-9 PM], Saturday [9-5 PM] Sunday [9-5 PM].
