Woodturning: All Screwed Up
Woodturning: All Screwed Up with Jeff Hornung
Take your turnings to a new and fun level by adding hand chased threads! We will cover all the details to use thread chasing tools to create a lidded box and a nut and bolt set, all on the lathe. While thread chasing might be technical, it’s not hard…you can do this!
This class is presented in collaboration with John C. Campbell Folk School and Lessonface. Class capacity is 12 students. Registration closes on January 26, 2024. Students are invited to attend a large group Orientation and Closing Ceremony to connect with various classes online.
Class Materials
You must have thread chasing tools. Brand and TPI are not important but TPI might determine what materials you work with. Please contact me about your tools if you have questions.
General woodturing tools and knowledge is required, this is not a beginner class.
Appropriate tools for spindle work and box making.
Acrylic or properly stabilized hybrid blanks may be better to work with for the nut and bolt. Just a suggestion, not a requirement.

Jeff Hornung
I am a full time woodturner, teacher, artist and creative. I teach private lessons as well as virtual demos both nationally and internationally. For the last 5 years I've been one of the primary Woodturning instructors at the Craft Alliance School of Art and Design in St. Louis MO and have been an assistant instructor for Kirk DeHeer at the John C Campbell Folk School. I was in the JCCFS catalog for my own full class in September of 2020 but Covid prevented us from getting together. Currently in the John C. Campbell Folk School Class Catalog for 2021 and excited to be part of the new virtual Folk School Classrooms here!
