Woodturning Magazine Issue 405 Retour à l'édition précédente

In issue 405 of Woodturning magazine we have lots for you to enjoy, beginning with our Guest Editor, Andy Coates, who welcomes you to the issue; makes an LED-illuminated sculpture; and reviews Record Power’s range of Pro Comfort Tools.

In Projects, Andrew Potocnik turns some wooden pebbles to decorate the lid of an oak box; Ger Vervoort turns an elegant banksia vase; Les Symonds makes a pair of sculptural candlesticks; Rick Rich creates a series of small bowls; Alan Holtham chases a thread on the two halves of a potpourri holder; Sue Harker turns a pedestal bowl-style candle holder; Mark Palma makes a pretty bowl from an unappealing piece of white oak; and Mike Stafford makes a trinket box.

In our Techniques section, Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions; James N Duxbury incorporates pewter into the base of his bowl blank; and Richard Findley continues his skew chisel series by exploring traditional chair-making skills to craft a Windsor-style stool.

In Features, Alexander Thomson meets Dave Dalby, a man who turns from the heart; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury considers the wisdom of asking for turning tools as gifts.

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 405!
