Wood Lathe – Make A Pen!

In this course you will learn how to make a pen:

  • prepare a wooden blank which will become the pen barrel
  • turn a pen barrel blank on the lathe to the desired shape
  • finish the wooden pen barrel to a smooth, sheer look and feel
  • assemble the finished pen
  • find resources and supplies for more pen projects

Each participant will leave the workshop with a finished Maple Leaf style pen.

Ages 13+ (Under 16 must have a parent supervisor attend with them)

All materials are included in the cost.

*This is not a lathe certification course. You will learn how to safely operate the lathe as an introduction to this fun hobby.
