The evening comprised of 2 turners doing a joint demonstration. The first part of the evening was done by Ian George who turned a birdbox with lid and finial. This involved some deep hollowing and showed many skills to achieve the final result.
The second part of the evening was Gerald Hubbard who created one of his signature makes, a clock based on a wooden sphere. Making spheres is always considered a difficult skill but Gerald explained the technique and made it look achievable. Maybe this will inspire us to have a go.
