Art Carpenter
Art Carpenter's first chair, an experiment using rawhide and lathe-turned parts, satisfies his criteria for good furniture: 'First, it looks like a chair—it doesn't look like an eagle or a tree—you know right away where to put your butt. Second, it lasts, it's rugged, it will stand the use for which it was meant for many years without repair. This has been a desk chair in my shop for 22 years, and its joints are as tight today as they were when they were made. Third, there is a directness and clarity of construc- tion, which gives pleasure to the hand and to the eye. And fourth, it is relatively fast to produce, given the primitive methods of my shop.' under his mother's maiden name, Espenet) is more than a role model—he has nurtured the growth of a generation of inde- pendent designer-craftsmen. Ask the successful woodworkers in the San Francisco Bay Area how they began and you'll hear, "I taught myself, except for some time I spent with Art." Even those who don't spend more than an afternoon at Carpenter's shop leave with practical direction to make it on their own—which is really the spirit of the Guild. The Bau- lines Guild works because it is the simple extension of the self-styled craftsmen who characterize the Bay Area. It prob- ably would not have worked so well were it not for the special place Bolinas is, but it's hard to imagine the Guild at all without Art Carpenter. -

The Ornamental Lathe
The Ornamental Lathe G. Phil Poirier Bonny Doon Engineering Taos, New Mexico, USA Introduction Originating from the simple or common lathe, which is known as the mother of all machine tools, the ornamental lathe is arguably the most capable machine tool in the history of mechanization. In the 1981 Metalsmith Journal, Kener Bond Jr., professor of art at the Rochester Institute of Technology, wrote, “Contemporary jewelers have been less aware of the rose engine and ornamental lathes and the historical contributions they have made to jewelry design and production.”1 This paper was inspired by Bond's quote and will briefly cover the history of the ornamental lathe and how it works, give an overview of many of its accessories, and share how it can be utilized in the design and creation of new ideas in the jewelry industry. Evolution of the Lathe into the Ornamental Lathe The plain or simple lathe dates back over 3000 years. Not until the 15th century did the simple lathe start evolving into something more complex. One of the first of many evolutions included the invention of a traversing spindle, a spindle which could move in and out of its bearings along the lathe’s long axis. This would then impart a screw thread into the workpiece which was attached to one end of the spindle and would traverse the lathe bed with the spindle.2 This meant that the simple lathe could now create the threads needed to make screws. The earliest published illustrations of an ornamental lathe is in Besson’s Theatrum instrumentorum et machinarum.3 The illustration in Figure 1 shows several of the ornamental additions to the simple lathe. -

Our annual meeting constitutes the largest woodturning expo under one roof anywhere in the world. This symposium is the culmination of another year of advancement for the AAW – one that finds the organization at 14,000 members strong and poised for significant growth ahead. The artistic and technological advances that have reshaped woodturning since AAW’s founding in 1986 will be on full display here in San José. The AAW has truly become a global institution, with more than 1,030 international members, many of whom will be with us in San José this week, coming from dozens of countries. We deeply value the perspectives that our international members provide and look forward to expanding their ranks in years ahead. For 26 years, the AAW has been the premier advocate for the ancient craft and art of woodturning, an activity that has seen phenomenal growth during the last quarter century by both part-time hobbyists and studio professionals. While the association publishes a world-class journal, maintains a topical website, and supports hundreds of local chapters with a variety of services, it is at this symposium that members see the creative and inspiring demonstrations and can experience hands- on interactions with the world’s best woodturners. We are delighted to bring the AAW annual symposium to the heart of Silicon Valley this year. -
