Matt Ebner Alabaster Turnings
Matt Ebner demonstrated how to turn Alabaster on the lathe. If you have been looking for ways to expand your turning to new materials you really missed out with is Demo. The translucent beauty of alabaster will really add to your work as a woodturner. It did get a little dusty at this month’s meeting but you really missed out if you did not make it. Here are some of the work that was displayed in the demo.
