Taking a break from the StoryTellers, Dennis works on one of his favorite subjects for stone inlay–the classical labyrinth. In this photo, he is carving the channels for the lapis inlay with a small dental drill.
The Liggetts’ woodshop also serves as a classroom. Dennis has a new demonstration of ‘Twistwork for the People’ ready for the Utah Woodturning Symposium. The debut was for the Pikes Peak Woodturners. In the follow-up class, several club members came by the shop to try their own hand at making the flame twist.
In the photo, Milo Scott helps Mark Harry sand his first flame twist. Dennis is watching Robert Brewer (behind Mark) turn a pineapple. Bill Smith and Lyle Wilgers also came over to learn simple twistwork.
Dennis holds training sessions throughout the year as part of his mentoring role for the Pikes Peak Woodturners.
