The City of Wolverhampton Wood Turners club was formed 8 years ago by a nucleus of members from the Cannock Chase club who thought it was time to have a meeting place for aspiring turners in Wolverhampton.
With the help of a grant from Wolverhampton City Council we purchased a lathe with chuck and various tools and also a video camera, projector and screen so that all members have a good view of demonstrations.
The club was an immediate success and grew rapidly. We are a small but friendly group and membership ranges from beginners to proficient turners and we also have two full time professional turners in the group.
In the last 2 years however we have seen a decline in membership and we are now actively seeking new members.
