A Course In Wood Turning
This manual presents step-by-step instruction in wood turning for students, dividing material into spindle and face-plate sections that pair exercises with graded projects. It covers lathe and tool care, chisel grinding, polishing, measuring and templating techniques, and specific operations such as oval, duplicate, spiral and chucking methods. Emphasis is on progressive practice, use of measuring sticks and templates for consistent duplicates, off-centering for ovals, and finishing procedures including sanding and filling open-grained woods. Drawings and dimensions accompany projects to guide instructors and pupils through practical shop work.
