Welcome

Presque Isle Woodturners Inc. is affiliated with the American Association of Woodturners and is organized exclusively for educational purposes with a mission to educate woodturners and the public, in and about the art and craft of woodturning.  This is accomplished by encouraging and facilitating training programs for woodturners, disseminating information about sources of material and equipment, exposing the art of woodturning to the general public, and serving as a resource for any group or individual interested in woodturning. 

Presque Isle Woodturners was originally organized in 1999 by a small group of individuals with a common interest in woodturning.  The PIW has grown to a group of over 50 members and became incorporated as a non-profit organization in 2003.   

The sharing of experience between members, presentations by invited woodturners of regional and national reputation, and an extensive library of books and videos on the subject of turning are benefits of membership.  Topics covered at any meeting may include turning technique, design, safety, finishing methods, and ideas for projects.

Meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month at 2827 W23rd St. at 7:00 PM.  Visitors are welcome any time, join us.
