Turning Competitions Winning Entries

Home > News > Turning Competitions Winning Entries

The 2018 turning competitions were a huge success with over 1,000 visitors passing through the doors of Carpenters’ Hall. We were delighted to receive a substantial increase in the number of entries compared to previous competitions with over 200 items on display across the 12 categories reflecting the wide variety of skill within the craft of turning. Those visiting were able to see these skills being demonstrated throughout the event on the various lathes using different techniques. Many congratulations to all the winners, and thank you to all the turners who took part, contributing to a spectacular display.
