Ron brings his signature easy-to-follow style using the English wheel, a machine notoriously difficult for beginners to figure out. Demonstrations are given on a broad range of machines from a cast iron monster to a tiny C-clamp. This comprehensive DVD includes the history of the machine as well as a clear explanation of principles that enable the machine to move metal. Ron shows basic tracking patterns that are used to shape panels of various sizes and configurations. In addition to common wheeling techniques, Ron also shows some less well-know processes, such as using a rubber top wheel and embossing with the machine. Whether you are brand new to the English wheel or an experienced user you will find lots valuable information!
