Turning Mirrors with John Lucas

Steve Criscenzo

John Lucas was the guest demonstrator for the Woodturners Guild of North Carolina (Raleigh, NC) last week. As the coordinator of the event I had the pleasure of spending some time with John.

John did an "inside out" demo for the club meeting followed the next day by a day-long class on turning mirrors.

Both sessions were well received. John is a true artist and a master of tool control. Even the experienced turners came away better. For me however, the best part was just visiting with John talking shop and sharing hints for a couple of hours in my shop.

John did a demo for us a few years back in Kerrville (NW of San Antonio) and he is one of the best demonstrators I have seen. It was on mirrors.

Excellent! Demo and shop time with Sir Lucas is certainly something to write home about!

Take a drive to TN later this month! - I'm looking forward to his demo on turning an ornament from a cube.
