Woodshop Lathe basics

I’m interested in taking the class to make a wood pen on the lathe, but it says I need the lathe basics class first. Will this be taught anytime soon?

Happy Hump Day!

Will there be an introduction to the lathe class soon? I noticed that there was a woodshop class for building a pen, but I am not able to join since I have not had the opportunity to be certified on the lathe.

@team_moderators - Might merge this with the “Woodshop Lathe Basics” thread.

Would Sunday at 11 work? @amyrobertson and @Mariner522 ? I’ll put a class up if so - It won’t show on the calendar for 48 hours though - Let me know?

@Lordrook @Jerry_Kassebaum @cvrana @ScienceElf are also active teachers that can help.

I should note that the pen class is mostly likely going to fill before Sunday, however I will teach another in early March.

Unfortunately I will be out of town this weekend. I could be available next sunday or many times during the week.

Hi @prl2018!

I am available at 11 this Sunday! If you’re willing to teach, consider me the first to sign up.

Hi @Lordrook,

Thank you for letting me know and being willing to set up another class next month. I’ll be sure to sign up when I see it on the calendar.

Best regards,

Hi Amy - I probably won’t be back in until mid- late March - Hopefully one of the others tagged can get a class up or do a 1:1? If anything changes on my side I’ll PM.

Ok Thank you so much!

And, the class is full. I was going to post a link, but I’ll wait to see if there are any cancellations.

So maybe I will shoot for EOM March to allow more folks to get signed off on the lathe. Or possibly in addition, will dust off my boots and do a lathe basics class early march as well. Lets see what I can fit into my schedule.

Is there any spots available for lathe basics coming up?

Looks like the class filled up, but if I see someone drop out I will let you know ASAP.

That would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
