I spent the day wood turning with Stephen, in the morning spun a small bowl and in the afternoon a larger bowl.
Stephen has years of experience as is willing to share his skills. The studio is fantastic, lots of interesting looking wood, tools and projects. He was good at demonstrating a technique and the allowing me to do it on my own.
I thoroughly enjoyed the day look forward to my next bowl.
