NC Woodturners Challenges Page

Can YOU go the distance? In 2008, we will once again have a challenge marathon. Those who complete all 12 challenge projects this year will be our marathoners. The awards presentation will take place at the December 2008 meeting and each marathoner will be awarded a $50 gift certificate from Klingspor and a trophy! See below for marathon rules.

Each month, the most creative challenge project will be awarded a $10 gift certificate from Klingspor!
