In this demonstration Damon will focus on advice and tips in giving demonstrations.
Damon Harmon has been researching the resources on doing demonstrations that are at the AAW website and has volunteered to talk about the series of videos and use the advice within them to develop a demonstration. In this case, he’s planning to develop a demo about turning bowls with a faceplate rather than a chuck.
