March 8th Lidded Box by Jesse Horn


Jesse demostatied his lidded box using Easy Wood Carbide Tools.


I have been turning wood for over 22 years, beginning with taking my first class on pen turning. During the period of September 2003 through September 2007, I worked for Woodcraft in Oklahoma City, teaching woodturning classes 2-3 times each month. Today, I am conducting woodturning classes for Woodcraft in Oklahoma City, OK, monthly and, in addition providing demonstrations to promote my classes. As an added measure, I have been employed by Easywood Tools to demonstrate their line of carbide tools and accessories to woodworking stores such as Woodcraft and Rockler as well as Woodturning Associations, and the Private Sector. My territory includes Oklahoma, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, and Arkansas. The classes I provide are the basic bowl, peppermills, duck calls, lidded boxes, vases, flowers, Christmas Ornaments (hollowed orbs and natural edge with finials), platters, segmented bowls, ornamental birdhouses, gnomes, and 2-piece hollow forms. I have a small business, and my shop is located in Moore, OK where I produce segmented burial urns, segmented bowls, pens, and I teach small classes. I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to hone my skills with such great woodturners as the late Dale Nish, Bob Fulton, and Carl Jacobson.


J. Paul Fennell Demo and Class

John Adams - 1/20/2025

AboutJ. Paul Fennel 

I have been a woodturner —and intrigued with the process—since 1970. For the most part I am self-taught, and have focused on the expressiveness of hollow forms since the early 1990’s. I presently reside in the beautiful Sonoran Desert, in Scottsdale, Arizona, with a 400 sq. ft. studio, adequate for my needs. I have been a member of the American Association of Woodturners (AAW) since 1986 (#297), a former member of the Central New England Woodturners (CNEW) (1987-1994), and a member of the Arizona Woodturners Association (AWA) since 1993. Over the years I have demonstrated at many symposia and local organizations, nationally and internationally. My work resides in numerous private collections, and several museums, including the Smithsonian, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Philadelphia Art Museum, and the Peabody-Essex Museum of Salem, Massachusetts.


International Woodturner J. Paul will be presenting his hollow and preicing forms in a full day demostration April, 12th 2025 starting at 9am to 4pm.

Mark Dean Ost, MD, 81 years, of Pineville, Missouri passed away on Monday, February 10, 2014 at Freeman West Hospital in Neosho, Missouri. Mark was born and raised in Northeast Kansas City, Missouri and he spent his retirement years in Pineville, Missouri. In his youth he became involved in scouting eventually rising to the rank of Eagle Scout. He was a warrior with three palms in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say, eventually rising to the level of Sachem. Shortly after graduating from Glennon High School in 1951 he enlisted in the United States Navy Reserves. His formal education began with two years of Junior College and Rockhurst College graduating in 1954. Inspired by some of his best friends who had decided to go into medicine he continued his education at the University Kansas Medical School graduating in 1958. He served his residency at General Hospital (Children's Mercy Hospital) followed by a distinguished 42 year career as a hospital based pathologist at Baptist Medical Center and as a founding partner of Ost, Talbot and Smith Pathology Associates (formerly Smith, Ost and Scales Pathology). He was honored by his colleagues to serve a term as Medical Chief of Staff in 1987. Mark was Board Certified in Anatomic and Clinical Pathology in 1963 and in his specialty - Dermatopatholgy in 1981. He thoroughly enjoyed teaching medical students during his time at Baptist Medical Center as a highly respected expert in his field. Mark loved to read. During his retirement he became an accomplished wood turner, proudly becoming the Chapter President of the State Line Wood Turners Club. Dr. Ost was known for his ambition, intelligence, integrity and most of all for his love for his family. He will be greatly missed by those who knew him. He was preceded in death by his parents, Emil and Emily Ost; two brothers, Richard Ost and his wife, Mary, William Ost and his wife, Pat; two sons, Christopher and Daniel Ost. Mark is survived by his wife of 42 years, Dr. Carol Luhn of Pineville, Missouri; his friend for 67 years, Phil Accardo; sister, Patricia Regan and husband, Frank; brother, Jack Ost and wife, Gen; six children, David Luhn and wife, Kathy, Christina Luhn, Emily Akers and husband, Jared, Kevin Ost and wife, Connie, Lisa Lasker, Jeff Ost and wife, Ranae; twelve wonderful grandchildren and four great grandchildren. There will be a celebration of life ceremony on Sunday, February 16, 2014 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. at the Pineville Community Center, 602 Jesse James Road, Pineville, Missouri. The family requests no flowers, donation may be given to a charity of your choice. We would appreciate anyone who would like to share interesting stories and memories of how Mark touched your lives. Another celebration in Kansas City may be announced for those unable to make the trip to Pineville.
