Northern Woodturners
At Northern Woodturners we are a friendly group of people who learn and promote the art and craft of woodturning, and train new woodturners.
Training Sessions
After the club's monthly meeting we occaisonaly run training sessions that are packed with information about techniques and ideas that may be of interest to our members.
We also run demonstrations and stream videos from time to time of skilled woodturners demonstrating techniques and alternative methods or new skills that aren't commonly known. These sessions result in significant discussion about how to implement them in our own environment.

We can provide new turners with the information required to make informed decisions regarding the space and ventilation needed, as well as the equipment, tools, and supplies required to begin turning wood in your own home.
Library
We have a large collection of magazines, books and videos of woodturning techniques that are available for all of our members to use.
There is also extensive information on project ideas and how-to guides for individual projects.
Training Content
By arrangement instruction can be provided in one on one format to get you started or to address specific issues.
We strongly encourage new woodturners to also undertake some professional instruction and we can help source that for you.
