Woodturning Magazine Issue 404 Retour à l'édition précédente

In issue 404 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Mike Stafford, who welcomes you to the issue; and makes a Swedish tomte gnome.


In Projects, Les Symonds turns an end-grain vase with a swing handle; Andrew Potocnik makes an open-sided box from Tasmanian blackwood; Rick Rich turns a candlestick from 2x4 timber; Sue Harker decorates a turned bowl with cut grooves; and John Hawkswell makes stripy salt and pepper pots.


In our Techniques section, Andy Coates tries out cloisonné; Richard Findley continues his skew chisel skill-building series by turning an oak pear; and Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions.


In Features, Alexander Thomson discovers how John Gillmoure went from photography to woodturning; Trefor Roberts, president of the National Association of Woodworkers, reveals the second and third place winners of the Art of Wood Exhibition; Mark Palma addresses the complicated issue of turning professionally; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury asks, what do woodturners do when they retire?


We also have a sneak peek at our next issue, plus news from the Worshipful Company of Turners and an update on the Mark Baker Woodturner of the Year Award, a competition in honour of the former Editor of Woodturning, with £4,000 worth of prizes to be won.


All this and more in Woodturning 404!
