Welcome to New Mexico Woodturners New Mexico Wood Turners, located in Albuquerque, has over 100 members from the Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and other central New Mexico locations. Regular meetings are on the first Saturday of each month and open to anyone with an interest in wood turning, from beginner to professional. Meetings feature presentations on turning techniques, wood selection, tool use and safety, and special topics which in the past have included vacuum chucks, holiday ornaments, and other unique subjects. Every meeting includes an informal "instant gallery" of member work. Some of the past projects are featured in our GALLERY section. We bring in nationally known guest presenters several times each year, and the club sponsors special events and projects in addition to regular monthly meetings. A popular event is the woodturning exhibition at the New Mexico State Fair, "Expo New Mexico" held every September. Activities include judged exhibitions of projects by local turners, live turning demonstratons, and videos of woodturning experts covering a range of topics. The club also publishes a monthly newsletter, High Desert Turning, that is distributed to all members. Current and past issues are also posted on this website. Click on NEWSLETTERS.
