Make a stunning wooden pen in this class, which is open to those who already have some pen turning/wood turning experience.

You will learn safe use of a lathe and carbide tools and put those concepts to use as you make your pen. You will also use a drill press to prepare your turning blanks.

You will work with pen blanks such as koa, burled or spalted wood, or stabilized wood. You will learn advanced finishing techniques, resulting in a pen of a quality that can retail for $85 or more.

• An additional fee of $41 to cover materials will be collected online when you register and pay.  Students will receive two pen kits and pen blanks.
