Lamps and Shades 02Lamps and Shades 01The instructor for this very special class is Peter Asselyn, a superb turner and seasoned teacher.  He will lead six students in following a straightforward eight-step procedure to turn a lampshade that is so thin it’s translucent

 

They’ll also turn a lamp base to go with it. With this class you begin to take ownership of very delicate hollow turning techniques. The resultant small table lamp casts a beautiful warm glow.
