Woodturning/Lathe woodworking classes in Chicago

Post by Camaraderie »

Hey all,
I'm up in Chicago for the next 7 weeks. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a class on using my new lathe or a general woodturning class. I've watched a million videos but it might be nice to get something hands-on.

I know there are woodworking classes at the Chicago woodworkers association but it seems I'd be joining in the middle of an 8 or 10 week class.

Anyone know of any or if in the area, they'd be willing to show me a few things? Right now, I'm in a friend's apartment and can't use the lathe.

Btw, saw this on my drive up from KC. Anyone here??

Woodcraft has classes. I'd start there.
