SPHERE / EGG
SKILL BUILDING WORKSHOP
Proficiency Level Required: Intermediate
In this skill building workshop, we will learn to turn spheres by hand/eye without an expensive sphere cutting jig.
These spheres and eggs will be turned both between centers and with a four jaw chuck.
Outside calipers and a template will help aid turning accuracy.
A sphere cup chuck will be turned to hold the sphere for finish turning/sanding.
Sanding and finishing options will be discussed.
Material Supplied:
(2) 4" x 4" 6" long Poplar Blanks per student
Multiple 2" x 2" 4" long poplar blanks per student
