How do you interest your wife in woodturning?
I have been trying to get my wife interested in woodturning to no avail. I
tried to interest her by asking her things like, do you think the grain on this leg would be a good match for this one? Or which bowl shape do you think would be nice for this blank? All I get for an answer is your the turner you decide. So my question is how do you guys get your better halves interested in what you are doing on the lathe? Tom |

How do you interest your wife in woodturning?
Hi Tom, Probably the same way that she got you interested in her
interests and hobbies. IMHO, some things are best left alone to progress or not. More to your question, you could sell a turning and give her the money to buy something she wants but hesitates to buy or you could buy it for her. That ought to excite her interest in helping to make your work sell for more. Turn to Safety, Arch Fortiter http://community.webtv.net/almcc/MacsMusings |

Tom I dragged my wife to the New York Scroll Saw picnic this summer. I had to take her to her favorite out of the way craft store first, but it was not that far off this path, so that wasn't too difficult. There were two Jet mini-lathes being shown off, one turning Christmas ornaments, the other making bowls and plates. She ended up buying a pine salad bowl and that operator gave her an unfinished cherry saucer that fit under it very nicely. Now she wants me to run out and buy a lathe so I can make her some more. She made sure to get the info from the booth that had all of the hardwood blocks. She also wants me to use it to make some crochet hooks, since her favorite hook maker retired a while back and she needs some new ones. Bob McConnell N2SPP |

Tom This is a slippery slope... one guy in my club got his wife interested. All of the sudden the Jet Midi wasn't enough and they got a One Way. The wife has taken it over and the guy has to wait his turn. ;~) The wife comes to all of our meetings and to guest speaker presentations... she seems to be into it more than he is! As another poster suggested, if that's what you want perhaps you have to marry the right one... this is the second go around for both of them and they get along tremendously to the point where others are envious.

My wife and I have many common interests, which we enjoy together. We also have our individual interests, which we enjoy separately. I think your wife has made it clear that woodturning does not excite her. Be happy if she admires YOUR work--that's probably as far as you can take it. |

This is like trying to teach someone to like brussel sprouts or tofu.
Much of what you get out of it depends on what you put into it. Forcing it down their throats will never work. T.

Two things: one, which has already been said, you probably can't interest someone in something they aren't interested in. More importantly, YOU probably can't interest your spouse in something YOU'RE interested in. Like teaching a wife to drive. uh, uh. Secondly, I'm aware of at least a couple of spouses who accompanied their partner to woodworking get-togethers where lathe demoing was done, and the spouse was put in the hands of an experienced turner while the partner walked away and let the other turner work his/her magic. I'm not sure which is more expensive: a divorce, or a second turner in the household. WoodCentral, my alternate home (as well as a few other wreckers), has several folks who host such gatherings. There's one coming up in Indy in a couple of weeks, and turning will be a large part of it. I went to the Indy one about 3½ years ago, and there were at least a half dozen lathes in use (including a Stubby, but don't expect that this year). -- LRod Master Woodbutcher and seasoned termite Shamelessly whoring my website since 1999 http://www.woodbutcher.net Proud participant of rec.woodworking since February, 1997 email addy de-spam-ified due to 1,000 spams per month.

Tom My guess is that spouses are either interested or not.. and it can't be forced... Maybe the best you're going to get is that she likes some of your stuff enough to display it in the house.. I guess I'm pretty lucky because my wife not only is very involved in my turning, but likes to spend time in the shop.. We both love wood and when I tried turning a chunk of firewood into a bowl after reading Derrel's page, she loved it.. (she had no idea that I'd been turning for years) Things progressed pretty fast after that... a jet mini for Christmas, help 6 months later shopping for the jet 1442, encouraging me to spend money for more and better tools, etc... She does the wood burning on all the stuff, from my name and the year to designs and highlights... and also has a really good eye for little shape details and is willing to come out in the shop when I need advise...

My shed is my only place where i can have personal R & R, inviting her into your last retreat could be fatal. You would only be left with the dog house to hide in :-)
If she's not interested best left alone. Mark |

How do you interest your wife in woodturning?
Be very careful. She thinks my shop is too dirty and crowded. So now she has her own building, lathe, grinder, bandsaw, tools, supplies, drill press, wood, chainsaw, DC, vacuum, etc. Two admissions to symposiums. VERY EXPENSIVE!! However after 39 years I'll keep her. No, she does not have a sister. Bill in WNC mountains |

O.K guys enough.
I just wanted to have something else we could do together, but thinking about all you have said maybe best leave well alone. At least I don't have to share my lathe or wood or tools now, do I?

I'm not worried about my tools, that's what my locking tool chest is for. Do I already see too much of him? Well, no, although I would like to see a little less of the mess that follows. And Tom... just days shy of 52 years of marriage, one of the last things my father said to me was he could leave everything else behind, except his wife. If I had one mentor in life, he was/is it. `Casper |

No great loss- I like having my turnery to myself, and her lack of interest in my lathes doesn't bother me a bit. |

You have to accept that she's simply not interested. If she's not interested, you can't force her. It's hard to realize that when you are passionate about a hobby. Look at it from her point of view. If she started collecting bottle caps, you'd probably feign interest when she talks about her collection and support her hobby, but I doubt you'd want to start your own colllection (one that is genuinely yours.. ie pick up the hobby). You'd probably keep an eye out for pieces for her collection and get pleasure from that (since it makes her happy), but you wouldn't be as excited about it as she is. |
