Our calendar has an interesting & diverse range of monthly woodturning demonstrations, using the expertise of members, as well as visiting professional woodturners. We also have a number of hands-on sessions during the year in which some of the more experienced members share their knowledge & skills with the newer members. There are also a number of social events, such as the New Year Supper & the Summer BBQ, & the all-important tea break during our monthly meetings. Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month at Weston-super-Mare Football Club,Witerstoke Road W-S-M. We have a varied and attractive programme and plenty of people to give advice and practical help. The Club prides itself on its friendly atmosphere. Being smaller than some clubs has the advantage that new members soon feel at home and are encouraged to take part in the activities for instance, the monthly competition, hands-on evenings. A great group of people who are keen to 'talk wood' and pass on ideas, tips and general advice to newcomers. Oh, and we do a great line in tea & biscuits!
Old House Handbook 2 Books Bundle Collection (Old House Handbook: A Practical Guide to Care and Repair,Old House Eco Handbook: A Practical Guide to Retrofitting for Energy-Efficiency & Sustainability)Worcestershire Woodturners was formed in 1981 to create a greater local awareness of the art of woodturning, to provide a forum for an exchange of views, promote the art of woodturning amongst woodturners and the general public, facilitate membership of the Association of Woodturners of Great Britain (AWGB) and to arrange local meetings and exhibitions with the aim of producing high quality turnery. The result of this is a friendly club of around 70 members, which meets at Droitwich High School on the first and third Monday of each month (except for Bank Holidays) from 19.00hrs – 21.30hrs. We number about 60 individuals, a friendly and sociable bunch, at all levels of skill from experts to beginners, from around the Dorset and Hampshire area all with a keen interest in woodturning. We have regular lectures and live demonstrations on the various aspects of woodturning and friendly competitions for all our members to show off their work. In the early days, the club was fortunate enough to have the sole use of a room at Altrincham College of Arts. This was converted into a workshop housing all our equipment. After the redevelopment of the College, this room was demolished, however, due to the generosity of Mr P. Brooks (Head Teacher) and his predecessor, Miss M Lloyd, we have the continued use of a woodwork room within the college.

We are delighted that the well-known turner Gary Rance is the Patron of our club. Gary is considered one of the fastest and most accurate production woodturners in the UK and is one of only a few whose income comes solely from woodturning. Gary has been a popular demonstrator at the club, combining infectious enthusiasm with pre-eminent skill, and we look forward to a long and happy collaboration with him. A groove in the face of a board, usually to accept another board at 90 degrees as in shelf uprights or draw sides.The main meeting will start at 7:30pm and finish around 10pm. Most meetings feature a talk or demonstration about a turning or related subject by a club member or a well-known national turner. Several times a year we have ‘turn-ins’ with a number of lathes being operated by members demonstrating various techniques. The club meets at the Mill House, Redgrave on the last Friday of the month at 7:30 p.m. and has a varied itiniery throughout the year guaranteed to inspire turners of any level. The club has Public Liability insurance cover, and members are insured whilst engaged in club activities.
