Follow along as Rudy demonstrates the techniques for making a beautiful natural edge thin stem goblet. Sponsored by the West Michigan Woodturners.

I will show you my technique for turning a thin stem natural edge goblet from a green limb approximately 1½” – 2 ½ ”dia. using mostly a 1/2″ or 5/8″ side ground bowl gouge. You will learn limb selection, pith orientation, and how to stabilize thin stems. This demo also includes tips on finishing and drying to help avoid cracking.
