This one-day intermediate session is for makers who’ve already completed our Lathe Sessions: Intro to Woodturning series and are ready to keep building skills at the lathe.
Led by Maker Space Manager Jason Robinson, you’ll turn a small twig pot while learning how to use a chuck to securely hold your workpiece. This fast-paced, hands-on session focuses on precision, control, and growing confidence through practice.
Open to MadJax Maker Space members who have completed the Intro to Woodturning series. A $10 lab fee applies.
Meet your instructor: JASON ROBINSON
After studying Fine Art and Graphic Design in college, Jason Robinson stepped into a leadership role that allowed him to grow as a digital artist, leader, process improvement manager, and teacher, trainer, and mentor. While he always maintained a strong interest in the arts, his creative pursuits often took a backseat to his professional career. In 2020, like many others, he found time to explore new creative processes, which led him to discover woodturning—a craft that has captivated him ever since. Following an early retirement in 2025, Jason began turning full time and actively engaging with Muncie’s vibrant Maker community. Jason’s role as an active member in the Maker Space at MadJax led to his staff position as the Maker Space Manager in August 2025.
