DEMONSTRATING
LATHE TURNED WOOD ART WITH EARL WEBER AND BILL HOCHMUTH

IT WAS A TREE –
IT’S NOW A BOWL – HOW DO THEY DO THAT?

Lots of wood
shavings (stand back!!), sharp tools, a REALLY high speed lathe, the sound that
is the sizzle and sing of the gouge on the wood – and hold your breath, now –
it’s a bowl, or a top or a Harry Potter Magic Wand or a humble foot massager or
a graceful vessel.

Watch Earl Weber
and Bill Hochmuth, two Gallery 200 wood artists, take the piece of wood that
you kick out of your way in your backyard, and turn the wood, no pun intended,
into something magical. They’ll show you the process, step by step. Watch art
and functional objects emerge from raw, rough wood in minutes as these talented
craftsmen bring out the forms and the art hidden in the soul of the wood.
