August 2019 Square Bowls and Milk Paint
Monday- 6PM- August 13, 2018 Enchanted Woodturners Meeting
We will meet at Santa Fe High School Woodworking Shop, see driving & parking diagram attached, and look at the high school’s location on Google Satellite to see it better.
Subject: Making a square bowl with a textured rim and finished with milk paint.
Presenter: Stephen (Steve) LeGrue
Steve will start with a square piece of 6” x 6” x 8/4 maple and turn a square bowl with a thin, wide rim. He will discuss considerations of mounting and turning wood that will end up being 90% turned air. Then Steve will mount the piece in the Talon chuck and finish the top. He will use a Micro-Pro Mastercarver to show several textures that can be added to the rim. Finally Steve will demonstrate how milk paint can add visual interest to the piece.
