In this beginning woodturning class, create an acorn box! Learn how to use high speed steel and carbide tools, and how to use a drilling attachment on the lathe. Make an acorn hat out of walnut, using measurements to create a perfect seal as the lid of the box. Then shape the main body, hollowing out a small storage compartment to keep special tiny treasures.
