The Central Coast Woodturners Co-op is a not for profit organisation. The Club was formed in 1985 by a small group of enthusiasts, to promote the art of woodturning and related crafts (such as scroll sawing, wood carving, pyrography and toy making).
Central Coast Woodturners is a group of volunteers who generously provide their time, skills and expertise to allow others to develop skills. A key feature of CCWT is the friendly and supportive atmosphere where all members are encouraged to participate and produce wonderful pieces made from wood. Enquiries from prospective members are always welcome.
CCWT is now open at our new workshop located in the premises previously occupied by Ourimbah Guides at 8 Ourimbah Creek Road, Ourimbah from 8am ~ 12pm on Monday, Friday and Saturday.
Our Official Opening was held on Thursday 21st March 2024. A great day was enjoyed by all.
"LEST WE FORGET"
New Members are always welcome. To see our club in operation, visit, ask questions and see if you would like to be involved in the wonderful skills on offer.
OUR CLUB IS
OPEN: Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays between 8am and noon. Training for specified Trainers only on Thursday.
At the beginning of each month we hold our members meeting where Wood Turners, Pyrographers, Scroll Sawers and Carvers are encouraged to display their craft items with the opportunity to win vouchers. Below are some of the items shown to members, explained by selected persons. Items may have either been made at the workshop or at their own premises. All highlight the skill and passion that goes into the making of every piece. Below are shown some of the pieces on display at our JULY MEETING.
Another very successful day at Bunnings Tuggerah sausage sizzle on Saturday 16th March 2024. A big thank you to all members who helped on the day and promoted the club and its activities. We really appreciate everyone who supported our club and made donations. Special mention to Ian who organised this great day for CCWT
It was a very busy day and it wasn't until late in the day that we could manage to take a much needed break (as shown below).
Another very successful day at Bunnings Tuggerah sausage sizzle on Saturday 15th June 2024. A big thank you to all members who helped on the day and promoted the club and its activities. We really appreciate everyone who supported our club and made donations. Special mention to Ian who once again organised this great day for CCWT. Also, a big thank you to Bunnings Tuggerah who allowed us to set up a display of our items at the entry to the store, with many people stopping to see the items and ask questions of our keen volunteer members.
Unlike our previous BBQ in March, the weather was not kind to us with rain and showers interspersed throughout the day. While this might have dampened the ground, it was great to see that it didn't dampen the enthusiasm for sausage sandwiches and drinks. It was really great to see the interest shown by people who came along and genuinely wanted to find out more about our wonderful club.

We are so grateful for Bulls Pickup and Removals,who were very supportive in our transition between premises. They were on time, efficient, took care with all equipment and were pleasant as they undertook the moving process. We could recommend these guys for all the care they put into their work.
Carrolls Timber and Building Supplies, located at the corner of Chelmsford Road and Pacific Highway in Charmhaven have generously donated pine offcuts which are being used by members and new members to practice the very important skills of wood turning, in particular spindle turning with an emphasis on turning of beads and coves and also utilising the correct techniques with tools and gouges. We thank Carrolls for their wonderful support and trust that you would also support them if you are in need of building materials or supplies for your projects.
