Mike Mahoney will demonstrate making platters at the Thursday evening club meeting!
Mike has been turning professionally since 1994. He does amazing work, and is an accomplished demonstrator. Mike says:
"“I am passionate about my craft and the American Craft movement. I am dedicated to producing quality craft and educating the public about woodturning. My wood comes from urban sources (tree trimmers and local cities). I produce all my work on the lathe without any embellishments after the fact, creating a very traditional feel with contemporary ideas. I want my work to be attractive as well as useful. For my work to be admired is one thing, but for my work to be used fulfills my purpose as a craftsman.”
