Doncaster Woodturning Club meets twice a month in the evening of the second and last Monday of each month. Please check the Village Hall calendar for the current meeting dates.
Anyone who is interested in learning about woodturning is welcome to join us. Club members are more than willing to take newcomers under their wing and explain the club's activities. Experienced woodturners are also more than welcome.
We have three meeting formats:
- Skills nights - where you can come along and learn how to get started with woodturning, or brush up your skills, or even learn a new technique. We usually have up to 5 lathes set up for members to use, with several Registered Tutors willing to impart their knowledge and skill.
- Demonstration nights - where a professional turner comes along and demonstrates his or her skills to the assembled club members.
- Zoom sessions on the other Monday evenings for a couple of hours from 7:00pm. Two club members are usually available, each working on a project (may not always happen).
Each meeting starts at 6:30pm and finishes at around 9:30pm. Doors are usually open from 6:00pm.
Current meeting fees are £3.00 for Skills nights and £6.00 for Demonstration nights (although your first two demo nights are free). Under 18’s are free.
The annual club subscription fee is £30, which includes membership of the Association of Woodturners of Great Britain (AWGB).
Tea and coffee (with biscuits) is available mid-evening for a nominal charge of 50p.
Come and join us for a friendly chat at any of our meetings, just turn up and introduce yourself. All are welcome – ladies, gentlemen as well as accompanied boys and girls.
