June 17, 2021 FLWT Monthly IRD and Meeting
Our meeting on Thursday June 17 begins at 7:00pm and Terry Lund will be our demonstrator via remote demo. Terry has been a member of FLWT since 2014 and he has been doing woodturning since 2007 when he took a class at the Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. Terry will discuss the "Ins and outs of making pepper mills" with some emphasis on techniques that are helpful for making larger pepper (or salt) mills on a mini lathe. Many times woodturners are hesitant to try to make a pepper mill from a kit because they may seem complicated or that they need special size drills. Terry will explain some alternatives and techniques that will simplify making the basic pepper mill item through his turning demonstration. He will also show examples of several different pepper mills from kits, and will discuss some of the potential issues or pitfalls with some of the kit designs or instructions. Some handouts will be available via URL link prior to the meeting.
