The Art of Wood Turning, a Demonstration by Max Monts
DATE: December 4, 2012
The Art of Wood Turning, a Demonstration by Max Monts
On Tuesday, December 4th, beginning at 5:30pm. The Venue will host a demonstration of wood turning by Max Monts.
Max Monts, a recently retired Clear Creek Elementary School Teacher, has also been a woodworker for most of his life. About 12 years ago, Max’s started to turn wood on his lathe. In his new life, turning has become a passion.
Lathe work is different than other types of woodworking, in that in turning, the wood moves rapidly and the cutting tool is presented slowly to the wood. Turners produce lots of shavings as opposed to sawdust. Making curlicue streamers is at the heart of a wood turner’s joy.
Whether the wood comes from the firewood pile, or purchased from an exotic wood dealer, the fun and mystery in woodturning begins in making the piece rounded. Knots, bark inclusions and voids within a piece of wood are all ingredients that add to the mystery of finding what hides within. Be it a bowl or lidded box, it is often the wood that dictates the form’s shape and function. Woodturning lends itself to the production of many different things, some functional, others decorative, and all artistic.
Max’s demonstration will be informative, interactive, and fun. Refreshments will be provided by The Venue. Max’s creations and our complete collection of Fine Art and Gifts will be on display for viewing and purchase. Free parking will be available in the lot on the corner of 4th and Grant.

• TIME: 5:30 p.m.
