Rochester Woodworkers Society


George lays out his pattern on a piece of masonite	His important marking points and dimensions are marked	The leg stock is roughed down...	and the important marks are transferred

George shows how few marks really need to be transferred	The pattern is then located for review while actually turning	George gets started and...	explains his sequence of cuts and why

The sequence is not only for speed but...	some cuts must be made first to enable others to be made	George makes and measures the only real critical dimension cut	The production turner aims for a smooth, off the tool, finish

The off the tool finish is really great so...	only a bit of sanding is necessary	The finished product	George finishes up answering any last questions on the day
