Woodturning with Carl Ford

Hi, I am Carl Ford

Welcome to my web site!

My woodturing stated back in 2002 as a hobby. It has now become an obsession.

I plan on becoming a full time studio woodturner after I retire from IBM. Until then I am a studio woodturner on weekends and weeknights.

I am very interested in giving woodturning demonstations and teaching classes.

My current obsession is small vases. I also love to turn natural edge bowls and jazz up my turnings with lots of color.

Classes

The Brookfield Craft Center is no longer offering classes due to financial challenges.

Please contact me if you would like to take a class in my studio located in Poughkeepse NY.

My Studio

I have 2 of the must have lathes for most people in my studio. A VB36 bowl lathe and a Powermatic 3520B. Plus a mini lathe and my Southbend metal lathe.

My studio has nice windows, good heat and tons of light. AC in the summer.

I only charge $75 per day per person. 2 person minimum. Or $100 per day for 1 person. Lunch is included. For some classes I may charge a small materials fee.
