Woodturning – Issue 413

In issue 413 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Mike Stafford, who welcomes you to the issue; and creates a Roman-style flask and stopper.

In Projects, Sue Harker turns a beautiful bulbous shape from a piece of laburnum; Rick Rich makes a goblet with eight captive rings; Andrew Potocnik creates a Tasmanian myrtle arched box; George Watkins turns a doughnut-shaped amboyna burr box; and James and Rita Duxbury make a whimsical cat and mouse.

In our Techniques section, Les Symonds explores different ways of making weed pots; Richard Findley looks at fitting box lids; Andy Coates shares his techniques for turning spheres; Mark Palma demonstrates ways to make and prepare bowl blanks; and Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions.

In Features, George Watkins explains how he is drawn to creating unusual forms and flowing lines in his highly decorative work; we meet Sussex-based green woodworker, chairmaker and author Jason Mosseri; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury discusses age versus experience.

We also have a sneak peek at our next issue, updates from the turning community and news from the Worshipful Company of Turners.

All this and more in Woodturning 413!
