About this Event

Three-day workshop over three weeks - Tuesdays, March 4, 11, & 18, 2025, 6-9 pm

In this beginner-level workshop, you will learn to turn between centers, focusing on turning spindles from rough stock, and turning coves and beads. These are the skills needed to make furniture parts for chairs, stools, and tables. The exercises will include activities to challenge your cutting touch and learn to sharpen lathe edge tools.

About the instructor:

Annalise Rubida is a fine furniture maker from Port Townsend, Washington. She loves combining machine and hand-tool woodworking practices and is just as happy with a drawknife as she is a table saw. With a background in fine furniture and chairmaking, Annalise's own work focuses on functional and sculptural pieces that bring joy to use. Her goal in teaching is to create an environment where people have the guidance and comfort to experiment with new concepts and grow their love for woodworking.
