We had a full day’s demonstration from professional turner Bill Care on the use of the Skew chisel and spindle turning. Bill started off by looking at the different types of skew chisels and how to use them, I think most of us picked up some hints and tips on how to use this very versatile tool. He then showed us how to make an onion box, an article on this has appeared in one of the woodturning magazines but the method he showed us was slightly different and easier to do. Following on from this he then showed us how to make a wine bottle stopper, a Scottish porridge stirring stick called a spurtle or thible, a mushroom and a goblet. All in it was an excellent day and the feedback I have received from members has all been positive with several of them saying it was the best demonstration the club has ever had.
