A two day bowl turning class is a great opportunity to immerse yourself in the experience of use of a Pole Lathe. During this class you will learn to safely axe out your own bowl blank, and then using the lathe turn a wooden bowl. Students will have ample time to complete a good size eating bowl, with the potential to start or complete a second one.
In this class we will also cover sourcing wood, sharpening turning tools, and more.
All tools & materials will be provided by the instructor,Raleigh Klotzek
. If you have your own tools please bring them (carving axe, hook knife, turning tools.)
The classes take place on Saturday from 9:30 am to 6:00 pm & Sunday from 9:30 am to approximately 4:00 pm.
If you would like to order tools and pole lathe centers please order them at www.wildcraftedhome.com and select pick up and Raleigh will bring them to class (anything else ordered from our web shop can also be brought to the course). She will have some extra sets of tools with her for purchase on site.
Please note that the workshop will be held in English.
KnaST is a small design and interior shop in the heart of Nørrebro. We have been around since 2015, when Anders and Carla first opened the doors to their wonderful universe of handmade furniture and ceramic art.
Today we are a collection of designers and craftsmen who all share the desire to create unique products. Common to all of us is our interest in materials, creativity and craftsmanship translated into a modern Nordic design.
In KNaST everything is locally produced and the products are therefore most often produced in smaller quantities.
Who are we?
