monthly demo - 5 august 2025

demo by gareth simpson

Gareth demonstrated turning a goblet from Black Walnut. Prior to the demo he turned the blank to a cylinder and added a tenon. He mounted the blank and first used a round nosed scraper to hollow the bowl of the goblet. From there he used a bowl gouge and spindel gouge to shape the outside of the bowl and turn the stem, then a parting tool to cut the piece off from the base of the blank.
