A sharp turning tool is the turner‘s best friend. ??
If you are having difficulty achieving smooth cuts and relying on scraping rather than cutting then this is the class for you. In this
hands-on class you will learn a quick and easy way to repeatedly and consistently sharpen all of your wood turning tools using the Oneway Wolverine sharpening system on a slow speed 8”grinder. The Oneway Vari-grind jig will be demystified and you will be shown a simple method to sharpen all of your bowl and spindle gouges. Sharpening the spindle roughing gouge, parting
tool, skew, and scraper (traditional and negative rake profiles) will also be discussed and demonstrated. Various shop-made and commercially available jigs will be demonstrated and available for student use. Bring your own turning tools - as many as you want to shape and sharpen to practice your skills in class.

Guest Demonstrator As a 4 th generation woodworker, I grew up around wood. I am Louise Butler from Reidsville, North Carolina. I have been a woodturner and woodturning educator for almost 20 years. By my 4th woodturning class at Woodcraft in Greensboro, I was teaching for them. The teaching part can naturally to me because by that time I had already been teaching math either at the local high school or community college. Even though I thought full-time before moving into the corporate world, I kept teaching and designing math conceptualize curriculum at the community college for another 30 years. Later I became the Director of the Rockingham Community College Center for Creative Woodworking only transitioning out at the onset of COVID when the focus of became construction trades. I taught woodturning and stained glass for Rockingham Community College and Alamance Community College as well as woodturning for the Sawtooth Center and Klingspor in Winston-Salem. I do private lessons for several students across the state on a regular basis. Soon I will be opening my own studio in Reidsville for the purpose of teaching woodworking, woodturning, and stained glass. Butler Wood, Glass and Art, where wood turns, glass breaks, and artistic ideas take flight, is under construction and load-in of equipment. People ask me all the time what I like to do best, and I have to say teach. I love to try new things which is where the rose platter came from. But teaching is my passion.
