The evening was a demonstration by Geoff Warr who set about enlightening us on segmented turning. He described in detail the processes of building patterns, marking out, cutting and gluing up segmented pieces to create projects such as pens, bowls and vases.
He then turned out a pre-prepared pot so that we could see the final parts of the process.
The techniques were of great interest and Geoff was inundated with questions and comments during the demonstration and at half time over tea and biscuits.
The April competition table was also opened for people to show their projects.
1st was a natural edge vase by Duncan Anderson.
Equal 2nd was a gavel and anvil by Gerry Coles and a box by Roger Gilbert.
3rd was a bowl by Ian Holmes.
