Alan Stratton - Ornament Challenge

Alan Stratton from AsWoodTurns.com did a Zoom virtual demo for for us at our August meeting. Click here to see a video of the demo. He has an annual Ornament Challenge and all you need to do to enter is go to his website between November 1st and November 30th, then post one photo of your ornament. The club that has the most entries will receive a free remote demo. Go ahead and post a photo and let's see if we can have Alan demonstrate another project for us!

Tony White makes a Lidded Bowl

On June 22nd we had our first in person meeting since the pandemic. Tony White shared how he makes his lidded bowls. You can see a video of his demo here.

Our President, Shann Galuza, gave some announcements before the "Show and Tell" where members talked about some of their latest turnings. Finally the President's Challenge of "Wing It" was judged. See it all by clicking here.

Who we are:

Nor-Cal Woodturners is dedicated to promoting the art of woodturning. We would be happy to meet with any organization or school that would like to learn more about this age old craft. If you have any questions write to information@norcallwoodturners.org

Nor-Cal Woodturners is a non-profit organization of woodturning enthusiasts from the greater Sacramento, California area. Our membership ranges from the novice to the seasoned woodturning professional.

Our mission is to foster an appreciation of the traditions and art of Woodturning. We do this by sharing our experiences, techniques and the turnings we produce with each other and the public.

Whether it's through our Youth Training Program, the Mentor program, club-sponsored day long turning events with nationally and internationally famous woodturners, our extensive library of books, tapes and DVDs or our monthly meetings, there is something for everyone.

The club meets on the 4^th Tuesday of each month (except in November and December).
