See what you could turn your hand to...
A friendly group of woodturners, from beginners to professionals.
Formed in 1993 the club is a place where anyone around Shropshire with an interest in woodturning can meet up to watch, try and chat about pretty much anything to do with woodturning.
Why not turn up to our next meeting to see what it's all about. You'll be most welcome.
Meetings are held on the 4th Wednesday of the month at Bicton Village Hall.
