Nor-Cal Woodturners upcoming events

Nor-Cal Monthly Meeting (May 26, 2026)

Wed, 27 May 2026 01:30:00 GMT

Emerging Bowl

Each month on the 4th Tuesday at 6:30 pm we have a monthly meeting (except November and December). We have a demonstration on woodturning and "show and tell" where members share what they have been working on. There is also plenty of good company.

This month, our club member, Barry Stephens, will demonstrate “How to create an “Emerging Bowl”; an artistic piece representing what lathe turning is all about …… i.e. - resurrecting a discarded tree limb to expose something beautiful and hidden inside. Barry will cover the steps and tricks to create these unique, “How’d you do that?” bowls.

No need to sign up, just come to the Veterans Hall. Bring something you've turned to share with the group. Bring a bowl for the Empty Bowls fundraiser for River City Food Bank. Or make a Wig Stand for hospital patients. You can also bring items to donate to the Raffle if you have something in your shop you don't need anymore.

Oh, and don't forget the President's Challenge! This month it is: Embellishments - Add some Texture, carvings or Decorations to something you have turned.

Hope to see you there!

Member Workshop - Open Shop (June 02, 2026)

Wed, 03 Jun 2026 00:30:00 GMT

Nor-Cal Woodturners has received approval to conduct member workshops at Palmiter School woodturning shop. These workshops are an opportunity to acquaint members with the school facilities and provide continuing education in basic woodturning skills for the members. Hopefully, after training, members will consider volunteering as coaches in the youth training program we have successfully conducted at the school for 12 years.

We need volunteer instructors. Please contact Jim Sanders

at yellingwolf@att.net if you can attend a class and share your knowledge.

The classes will be held on Wednesday evenings a week after the general membership meetings.
