About

If you've already taken at least one bowl-turning class at BARN but want a refresher after the long closure, this class will help you renew your gouge skills and safety practices.

The instructor will give a brief overview of the lathe, show how to mount stock and review the sequential steps needed to turn a bowl, including mounting
and re-mounting, how to present the gouge and how to prevent “catches.” Once
you feel comfortable, you will be able to practice on stock that BARN will provide.

Details:

• Ages 14+ are welcome.
• This class is free but you must register, and you must have already taken Introduction to Bowl Turning or been cleared to turn bowls during Open Studio.
  
• BARN is practicing safety measures for the health and well-being of all participants, in accordance with state and CDC guidelines. Everyone is required to wear masks, wash or sanitize hands frequently, maintain a distance of 6 feet between individuals, and stay home if they are sick. Overall BARN safety policies are here. Studio-specific safety policies are here.
• Wear closed-toe shoes, avoid loose-fitting clothing and dangling jewelry, and tie back long hair. Bring your own safety glasses if possible.
