Wadebridge Woodturning Club hosts open evening and lathe demonstration 11 February 2026

Wadebridge Woodturning Club staged an open evening and lathe demonstration at St Issey Village Hall on Wednesday 11 February 2026, with the session scheduled from 18:30 to 21:00. The event combined a public-facing meeting format with a practical turning demonstration on the lathe, giving visitors a concentrated three-hour view of club activity.

The club promoted the event as an open-to-public meeting in a Facebook post that served as the event notice. The post listed the date and the 18:30 start time and described the evening as a demonstration on the lathe, signalling the club intended a hands-on display of turning techniques for members and visitors alike.

St Issey Village Hall hosted the session in the early evening; the venue name featured in the club’s announcement and anchored the meeting to the Wadebridge area. The 18:30–21:00 time window allowed for setup, the lathe demonstration, and informal discussion between the demonstrator and attendees in the village-hall setting.

Wadebridge Woodturning Club’s choice to run an open evening on Wednesday 11 February 2026 reflects the club’s emphasis on accessibility, stated in the event notice as open to the public. The Facebook event/meeting notice used the club’s usual channels to invite people along to watch the lathe work and to learn about the club’s activities in person.

The 11 February session joined the club’s regular calendar of meetings by offering a public demonstration at St Issey Village Hall from 18:30 to 21:00. Members and guests who saw the demonstration at the lathe experienced the practical focus the club set out in its announcement, and the format underlined Wadebridge Woodturning Club’s intent to showcase turning skills to the wider community.
