I am finally getting an opportunity to see a demo by renowned turner/artist Derek Weidman. He is going to be at two clubs here in Virginia next week, including Central Virginia Woodturners, of which I am a member.
I have wished at times I could look over his shoulder, so to speak, as he makes his artistic marvels at the lathe, sculpting by using multi-axis turning techniques, and witness what this turning genius does as he creates his masterpieces. Now I have my opportunity! In case you have never seen his work......marvel at the artistry at the lathe!
