Platters and Stands
Adult | Available
Summertime and the turning is easy—make platters and stands for your hot-weather cookouts or for gifts (or both). Spend evenings in June turning an assortment of hardwood platters, all with food-safe finishes. For the final project, turn an all-wood cake stand with a milk-paint finish. No prior woodturning experience needed.
