Happy New Year! I hope everyone had ample opportunity to eat, drink and make merry. Likewise, I hope you all managed to get some quality shop time in and finish of your Christ- mas gifts on time. Life gets in the way sometimes and I didn’t get the shop time I would have liked. If you read me last column, I mentioned that I would somehow manage to pull a proverbial rabbit out of the hat and get my projects all completed on time and that I’d likely be in the shop on Christmas Eve making that happen. I’m happy to report that I didn’t have to be in the shop on Christmas Eve because this year’s rabbit turned out to be Amazon. Sigh. Next year I promise to be more organized and start my projects much sooner. Yeah, right.

As I sit here on a beach in Maui banging out this column while sipping on a Mai Tai, watch- ing whales breaching on the horizon and giant sea turtles poking through the surf near the beach, I am reflecting back on the more creative activities that I managed to participate in since our last meeting in November. Of course, the highlight was the airbrushing demo and amazing two-day workshop put on by Joe Fleming at the beginning of December. I want to send a very big shout out to Brian Lunt for his amazing efforts gathering all of the required supplies and materials and facilitating the workshop.

Despite not getting much turning in over the holidays, I did manage to get a few hours of airbrush practice in. I still suck at it but I’m having fun doing it and I think I am sucking a bit less as I experiment and waste a bit more . The other highlight of my holiday sea- son was spending the week between Christmas and New Years at our off-grid cottage on Gambier Island trying to keep the wood stove stoked and catching up on my reading. Since we weren’t the only brave souls trying to keep their cabins warm, there was also a bit (ok maybe more than a bit) of partying going on. It’s amazing what sort of shenanigans normal- ly sedate and somewhat geeky adults can get up to when there is no electricity or cell phones and more than ample food and intoxicants on hand.

While on Maui, Michele and I were fortunate to be able to attend an impromptu meeting of the Maui Woodturners who threw together a last minute demo when vacationing Wisconsin turner, Lyndal Anthony ( www.midwestwoodart.com ) offered to demonstrate multi-axis sculptural turning and give a short lecture on geometry. The meeting was held at the studio of the Maui Woodturners’ president, Emiliano Achaval ( www.hawaiiankoaturner.com ) located on the historic Haleakala Ranch in the Maui ‘upcountry’. We were warmly greeting by the members in attendance but unfortunately were unable to meet Emiliano due to a family emergency. Sadly we will be back home just before their next regular monthly meeting. While in the neighborhood we stopped in the nearby village of Makawao where we spend a lot of time exploring a few galleries displaying GVWG Page 3

the amazing works of several local turners and woodworkers. I think I’ve fallen in love with the local curly koa wood.

Getting back to the rainy Wet Coast, about a week after our January monthly meeting our very own Art Liestman will be presenting a Saturday demo followed by a Sunday workshop on Lost Wood Turning. This is something that I experimented with very briefly several years ago and very much look forward to learning more about. Mark your calendars and plan to attend the demo as this should prove to be a very interesting and informative presentation.

Aloha!

Tech Talk By Bruce Campbell Barry was the first up at our last Tech Talk meeting showing some interesting metal collets that can be glued into wooden handles. A clever feature of these units is that they are intended to be glued into the handle billet before it is turned. A small insert is pro- vided for the back of the billet providing a solid cen- ter both for initial turning and to re-turn the handle if the need should arise. Stock sizes include:

I feared a bent tertaining the idea of getting one. Even though I needle or some other expensive reason, but happily have one and have mucked around with it a fair bit, it was only a microscopic bit of paint in the nozzle I gained a lot of pretty deep information from the – from poor cleaning. So, it turns out that (really) demo alone. thorough cleaning was a far bigger deal than I thought. Lesson number one received and noted.

Once we all had clean airbrushes, we started with exercises to develop hand and “trigger finger” con- trol. Much like a musician running arpeggios and chords before a concert – and a woodturner cutting a series of beads and coves before turning (need a wink emoji here) – Joe runs through these exercis- es to get his wrist and fingers loosened up. We filled a large piece of paper full, back and front, with those.

On to basic techniques. We did a cube in perspec- tive view using Frisket for masking and different shades of colour on the three sides to show depth of field. Next, we used “fogging” to show depth of field. We applied the Frisket to a practice piece, drew and cut a circle in the center, removed that then fogged paint on in such a way as to show the direction of a light source. Once applied, the circle mask was replaced, then the remainder taken away to allow us to fog black on in such a way as to rep- resent a shadow, again indicating the direction of a light source. The effect was amazing and much eas- As always, the workshop was that and more. Sur- ier than I would have imagined. Hooray for Frisk- prisingly – at first – the focus was on cleaning.

Hawai’i Dreams – A Woodturner in Paradise text and photographs by Dex Hallwood For many years my wife and I have visited Hawai’i.
