BAWA Summer Picnic

As always, come join us for great food, great company, wood for sale, tool swap, and President's Challenge.  If you have any questions or would like to help out, contact Larry Batti at mailto:memberatlarge@bayareawoodturners.org

President's Challenge for the BAWA Picnic:

“Turn the Sphere, Ball, Orb, Circular Object of Your Dreams!”  In other words, whether you are a first-time or a veteran sphere-turner, make a sphere or a creation involving a sphere and tell us all about it at the picnic.  There are no constraints or limitations except that it be made primarily on the lathe.  Big or small; wood, acrylic, epoxy, or something else; segmented or solid; carved, painted or just plain wood - you name it, we want to see it!  And the awards?  Everyone who brings an entry will receive 5 Wood Raffle tickets to be claimed at any of this Fall’s monthly meetings.  Have fun and I look forward to seeing the pictures.

P.S.  If you’re looking for some guidance on turning a sphere, a great place to start is with Jim Rodgers’ two videos on the topic.  You can find them on the BAWA Website: go to Resources, then to Videos, and then to the Jim Rodgers Videos page.
