Mike Peace enjoys every aspect of woodturning including demonstrating and teaching. He has demonstrated at the American Association of Woodturners symposium 2016 and 2018, as well as regional symposia and at many clubs in the Southeast and more recently Interactive Remote Demonstrations to clubs throughout the US, Canada and England. He has taught at the John C. Campbell Folk School.
Mike Peace will demonstrate how to turn a chess set. A chess set is not that difficult for a novice turner. He will cover chess set design, wood selection, using story sticks, chucking, turning and finishing. You can access his article on turning a chess set published in the Feb 2020 American Woodturner on his website, MikePeaceWoodturning.com.
