Turnery also called turning, is a very ancient craft. A lathe-like device is said to appear in hieroglyphs as early as Ancient Egypt and, later, in excavations in Rome. But it was not until the 15th century that turnery came to prominence in Europe as a prestigious form of ornamentation for luxury spaces. Today it is a respectable trade and industrialization has bequeathed us a more sophisticated machine that makes the job much easier. Find out how to become a good turner with our books on turnery.

Turnery is the trade of woodworking with a lathe. The turning process can be performed on both simple and complex parts. Although nowadays parts can be manufactured in series, and not only in wood but also in steel to assemble various types of devices, due to technological progress, turning is still considered an art and the lathe operator (turner) is still considered a craftsman who can reproduce parts or create new ones, according to their skills and the use of their imagination.

There are different types of lathe operators, some are more dedicated to craftsmanship and woodworking. Others work in the industrial sector handling much more sophisticated machines, which require more advanced knowledge to operate them successfully.
