A double-set DVD, over 4 hours of exercises and projects to develop your woodturning skills.
The follow-up companion for Alan's DVD "Woodturning Getting Started Right" this two DVD set has a long set of exercises with different tools followed by projects to develop your skill and knowledge of woodturning. The first projects are between center ones: wooden egg, weed/twig pot, screwdriver handle and a pepper mill. Following these Alan shifts to face-grain turning showing you how to made a green turned bowl followed by one made from kiln dried wood. Lastly you learn the basics of hollowing end-grain with the making of a toothpick holder. Working first with exercises, then between center work, face-grain work and finishing with end-grain hollowing parallels Alan's highly successful woodturning courses. Approximately 240 minutes of information packed video.

Can't wait to get started!
Marc Adam's has always said that Alan Lacer is one of his best instructors he has at his school. And now I see why. I purchased two DVD's to give me a little head start for my up coming class at Marc Adam's School of Woodworking, in late October. I have been go to the school for sixteen years now and have my masters. I have had many great instructors, but for some reason I never took a class from Alan. After view the first of two videos I purchased, I can see why Marc is so high on Alan Lacer. He makes you want to move to Wisconsin to be near his shop, so maybe you can stop by once in awhile just to say hi, or maybe to have him show you something new, (and I'm a Michigan Wolverine fan.) I did take one Turning class to get my masters, but Alan's should be a mandatory first class, he just takes all of the fear and mystery out this wonderful part of woodworking we call, Turning. Can't wait to start turning, and also view the next DVD. Rich Herbert, Oxford Mi.
