We are a club focused on wood turning based in the Detroit Area of Michigan. Our meetings are usually on the third Sunday of each month, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm, at the Shadbush Nature Center in Shelby Township, Michigan.
We publish a newsletter, titled "Shavings", which is full of useful resources, pictures, articles, and more. Please enjoy browsing the wealth of tips and information in our newletter archives.
Mentoring Program
Among other things, we offer a mentoring program to help increase member skills.
A large number of our members have participated in this program - both as mentors and as mentees/students.
We find this program very successful and a valuable asset to our organization.
A competition was held at the February DAW meeting to determine a representative work to be included in the AAW special event at the annual Symposium in St Paul MN. The exhibition is, "Turning 25 - A Celebration". Each chapter of the AAW is encouraged to enter this exhibit. The goal is to have every AAW chapter represented and for each chapter to enter a lathe-turned work that exemplifies and represents that chapter. Our selected piece is "West Wind" a hollow form and carved work by Roger Meeker.
Member pieces shown at the DAW February 2010 Meeting
