Rochester Woodworkers Society


While a bit corny, it is a great teaching tool	Jim is probably the most accomplished skew user in the club	Like Ralph, Jim explained and then demonstrated	Jim covered the spindle gouge and skew

Proper tool orientation at the start of a cut is key	All of the students had personal attention from the instructors	With 2 students to a lathe, there was plenty of turning time	Over the course of the day, there was about 3 hours of lathe time

For the more advanced, there was a focus on their needs	Some beads and coves practice...	as well some planing skew practice	Jim and Ralph at the end of a great workshop
