Woodturning Magazine Issue 407 Retour à l'édition précédente

Guest Editor, Les Symonds, who welcomes you to the issue; and adorns a classic goldfish-bowl shape with cabochons made of coconut shell.

In Projects, Andrew Potocnik turns a plate of wooden macarons; Andy Coates looks back through the Woodturning Annual and revisits an article about a turned door knocker; James Duxbury turns a decorative napkin holder and weight; Sue Harker makes a candle holder from a yew log; Rick Rich turns a seam ripper; Ian Woodford adds a little flavour and spice to the dinner table with his salt and pepper mills; and John Hawkswell incorporates a fibrous banksia nut into his chalice design.

In our Techniques section, Kurt Hertzog answers readers’ questions; Mark Palma suggests ways to aid tool handling; Adrian Jacobs continues his exploration into materials for resin inlays; and Richard Findley gets us ready for Easter by turning some eggs with just a skew chisel.

In Features, Alexander Thomson introduces Gabriel River Clark, the young turner who has become famous for his charity work; Mark Palma puts the Record Power Victory chuck and Versalock system through its paces; Marisa Klaster tells us about her contribution to an exhibition at Soestdijk Palace in the Netherlands; and Pete Moncrieff-Jury questions the motivations behind his timber collection.

We also have a sneak peek at our next issue, updates from the turning community and news from the Worshipful Company of Turners.

All this and more in Woodturning 407!
