Are you ready to unlock the secrets of color mixing to transform your wood turnings into vibrant works of art? Join Jason as he demonstrates strategies to simplify color, giving you the confidence to apply and mix transparent dyes for wood coloring. In this session, you'll master the three dimensions of color: Hue, Value, and Saturation. Additionally, you’ll explore basic color harmonies and schemes, gaining practical insights into the art and science of color and techniques for applying dyes to various wood species in your shop.
Why settle for round when you can go tall? Join Jason as he shows you how to create long-neck hollow forms on the lathe. In this session, you'll explore reverse hollowing techniques to elevate your turning skills and dive into the exciting world of vertical vessel design. Jason will also cover proportional strategies for tall vessels and share tool control techniques for achieving smooth, elegant curves and transitions across long distances.

Do you lack the patience or time to carve perforated vessels? Join us for an engaging session where Jason will demonstrate a rapid technique for creating stunning "perforated" designs on the lathe using a drill jig and Forstner bits. Learn how to achieve precise patterns quickly and eliminate tear out for professional-looking results. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and streamline your process!
In this demo, I turn a set of three Danish candle holders inspired by the work of Rude Osolnik. Handout attached showing a dimensioned drawing of the design using the Greek Golden Ratio as a proportioning device.
This is a template and set of instructions to build yourself a pair of Golden Ratio Dividers as seen in many of my demonstrations. Print onto 11”x17” for a good working size for most turning applications
