Turners Anonymous is a group of woodturning enthusiasts from the Tri-State area surrounding Pittsburgh. We love all things about woodturning… the satisfaction of a sharp clean cut; the smell of freshly sliced cherry shavings; an excuse to buy new, expensive tools; and most importantly, the chance to help others to explore and enjoy the hobby as much as we do.

Please feel free to explore these pages to learn more about Turners Anonymous, look at some photos, and consider coming to a meeting.

We have exciting news--after six years at Woodcraft, we are moving back to Contemporary Craft. Many of you will remember our meetings in the basement of their Strip District location. While we were not able to move with them to Lawrenceville in 2019, they recently purchased a second building across the street from their existing building that will enable them to reopen their wood shop and us to move back in. It will be better than ever before. Gone are the days of crowding into a basement--the new woodshop has high ceilings with wood beams and large windows with natural light. We have signed a Collaboration Agreement with them and are getting ready to move our lathes (which have been in storage since 2019) back into their shop. We're excited to get more signatures on our Powermatic demonstrator lathe, the first of which will be Pat Carroll, who will visit us from Ireland in October.

Details of our September meeting coming soon!
