Our Monthly turners meeting was attended by thirty-two members who got a real fine Demo by our good friend Wes Jones.
Surface decoration was the subject and Wes, as you see in the pictures brought some outstanding examples of Bowls he embellished. We all hope to attain his skill level one day.
Wes demonstrated two electric carving tools, a Fordom and a Pro Carver Micro tool. Then followed with a Burnmaster Woodburning tool. He has several homemade attachments for the Lathe, crafted custom carving tools and even built some custom burning tools. We all asked many,many questions every step along the way but I know he enjoyed the interaction as he knew we were fully involved in his Demo.
Many thanks from all of us Wes.
