BRUCE HOOVER DEMONSTRATION AGENDA


Saturday, April 19th                                                                                                                                                               8:30 AM to 4 PM

Useful Shop Tips and Organizers & Sanding Secrets Demo


Good useful shop tips abound, but are often just a footnote to other topics.  Presentation includes an accumulation of worthwhile tips from my own experiences along with some learned from others.  Sub-topics include tips for on the lathe, reverse-turning, gluing, etc.  Ways to organize your tools and supplies for better efficiency will be included. Bruce has developed many innovative methods, tools, and widgets to reduce sanding effort.

Turning Palm Demo - a wood of mystery to many woodturners

Finial Lids Demo



Sunday, April 20th                                                                                                                                                                             9 AM to 4 PM

Sanding Secrets Hands-On Workshop

This workshop will follow the general outline of the demonstration.  There will be a brief discussion of each topic and then everyone will be given the opportunity to try the new method or tool shown before moving on to the next topic.  Being able to perform each task yourself helps it make better sense.  Six hours should allow enough time for everyone in the workshop to “test drive” each tool using new methods.  The more lathes the better as it will increase hands on time.  Participants are asked to bring their favorite tools and sanders, and also pieces in progress for sanding and experimenting.
Bruce has one of the largest product booths at the Florida Symposium and there is always a crowd gathered at his booth. He will be bringing his “mobile store” along this weekend, so you will have an opportunity to add to your sanding and woodworking supplies if you desire.


The demo will be held at Sue Thomas’ shop, just north of the river in Ft. Myers.
You should bring your own lunch or plan to run out for lunch during the lunch break.
Chairs will be provided at the demonstration.
