The Willard Baxter Woodturning Studio is a woodturner’s dream come true. The 2,500-square-foot space features a tiered-seating demonstration area with video monitor, and separate wood preparation, turning, and finishing areas. Named after the late turner Willard Baxter, a former instructor and beloved presence in the woodturning world, the studio was completed in January 2007. The wooden pergola over the entrance was built in 2011 by Charles Judd’s Timber Framing class.
