Pole Lathe Wood Turning

Date: Sunday 23rd Feb

Time: 10am

Venue: Newham Grange Leisure Farm

An excellent session with a former member or our Friends team.

With wood recently fallen in Fairy Dell Park, we were shown the natural splitting point of a log through to the end production of some very acceptable items.

Throughout the sessions the tutors gave a commentary on how the skills we were learning would have been known to “Bodgers” in medieval times.
