11/12/2024 Screw threads making with Jan Hovens (German spoken)
Making a screw thread in wood
Chasing a screw thread is incredibly fun to do. Relaxing, almost zen.... And once you understand how to do it, it becomes more fun and easier! In this course, you will learn how to chase a screw thread from the master himself. Jan Hovens. There is no one in the Netherlands who knows more about screw threads in wood than he does. And he can explain and demonstrate it very well.
What size screw thread? In what wood? At what speed? All questions that will be answered. During the day, you will make your own box with a lid with screw thread. At the end of the course, you will of course take your workpiece(s) home with you.
If you want to participate in this course, you are of course very welcome. We do expect you to have experience with woodturning. You must be able to make a box with a lid yourself. The course focuses on the screw thread, not on the other techniques. The course is in German.
Hands on!
In this course there is of course room for "theory and fun facts" but the emphasis is on the technique in practice. It is a real "hands on" course. You will spend as much time as possible behind the lathe! Feel free to bring something to take notes.
