The sphere is nature’s most perfect shape. It is a precision form easily defined by mathematical equations.
Tom Cummings and Terry Elfers demonstrated how to turn a perfectly round ball, as well as a football. Their ball jig has evolved over many iterations to be a very simple and precision machine. They demonstrated how to make a ball jig, in detail. Click HERE for a detailed copy of the directions. Additionally they demonstrated how to make and use a very efficient vacuum chuck; how to use a "wave bowl" jig and how to turn display stands for your spheres. We had a great time and learned the advantages of working with jigs. |

Our time at Doll Lumber this year will include a short business meeting followed by a detailed discussion of how different finishes look on different woods. There will be numerous examples shown followed by an in-depth Q&A session. Doll Lumber offers tours of their saw mill, a chainsaw demonstration and lots of time to look over their extensive turning stock and flat stock. A Picnic lunch will be provided and Doll has a GREAT stocked fishing pond if you care to try your luck. Come join your friends and fellow woodworkers!
