Wig Stand President's Challenge


Each month we have a "President's Challenge" where turners are encouraged to make something based on a specific theme.  For our February meeting the challenge was to turn a Wig Stand. The Women in Turning (WIT) group have been promoting this and Noele DeSafey, our VP, suggested we start a new program. Our members will be turning Wig Stands though out the year and donating them to the local cancer centers. Here are some of the ones that were created.  Click on the photo to see them in detail.

Who we are:

 

Nor-Cal Woodturners is dedicated to promoting the art of woodturning.  We would be happy to meet with any organization or school that would like to learn more about this age old craft. If you have any questions write to information@norcallwoodturners.org


Nor-Cal Woodturners is a non-profit organization  of woodturning enthusiasts from the greater Sacramento, California area. Our membership ranges from the novice to the seasoned woodturning professional.

 

Our mission is to foster an appreciation of the traditions and art of Woodturning. We do this by sharing our experiences, techniques and the turnings we produce with each other and the public.

 

Whether it's through our Youth Training Program, the Mentor program, club-sponsored day long turning events with nationally and internationally famous woodturners, our extensive library of books, tapes and DVDs or our monthly meetings, there is something for everyone.

 

The club meets on the 4th Tuesday of each month (except in November and December).
