Our meeting on Thursday May 20 begins at 7:00pm and we will feature David Ellsworth via remote demo. David is one of the most well known names in the field of woodturning. During the IRD with FLWT David will discuss his approach to designing and turning hollow forms and will demonstrate his techniques for making a thin wall hollow vessel.
During the mid-1970's David developed a series of bent turning tools and the methods required for making the thin-walled hollow forms of which he is known worldwide. His first article titled, “Hollow Turning” appeared in the May/June 1979 issue of Fine Woodworking Magazine. His first book, Ellsworth on Woodturning, was published by Fox Chapel Publ. in 2008.
