I have gone to several and am amazed at how much you can learn in just a few days. Art and Roland are patient and considerate instructors and truly masters of the art. If you sign up early, Village Restorations have some accommodations.

]]> Comment on A Spring Pole Lathe in the making for The Horn Guild House. by Rick Sheets https://blog.hornguild.org/general-interest/a-spring-pole-lathe-in-the-making-for-the-horn-guild-house/#comment-34 Rick Sheets Mon, 13 Dec 2010 01:22:44 +0000 http://blog.hornguild.org/?p=8#comment-34 Hello Ron, The "reproduction" will actually be a reduced size lathe purpose built for horn work and in a knock-down design. The only part that will be an exacting copy from the Old Salem lathe will be the mandrel assembly. Please come back to this blog to see the progress of this project. Thanks, Rick Sheets Hello Ron,

I've been looking for a good picture of this lathe for a long time. I cant wait to see your reproduction. Is it posible to get more pictures and measurments? I have a spring pole lathe that I built a few years ago but I am going to make another. I like this design a lot. I seen it on videos from the wood Wright Shop. Jack Pot!

Also, while not a seafaring person, the thought of running into that "ugly mermaid" definitely keeps me on land! Nice horn. John Rich,
