What it is
Graham Bourquin takes to the lathe for a live wood turning demonstration, giving families a chance to watch raw timber transform into finished pieces before their eyes.
Wood turning is one of those crafts that rewards a close look — the spinning, the tools, the ribbons of shaving curling away — and it has a way of pulling children in and holding their attention.
Where this fits
Every one of these is a list we keep for Auckland families.
