The mission of SB Education is to capture Stuart Batty’s dynamic teaching methods in videos, books, and workshops so that any woodturner can experience the depth of knowledge that would traditionally pass from mentor to apprentice in a full-fledged apprenticeship.
Stuart, who is world-renowned for tool proficiency, has developed an unparalleled teaching method. He has taught thousands of students over the past three decades. Stuart’s teaching method builds on the fundamentals of woodturning. Technique is broken down into individual components so that each action is fully explained for turners with any level of experience. By cultivating a strong foundation of knowledge, Stuart’s teaching methods enable woodturners to create any object on the lathe with a superior finish. Through mastering tool control and proper techniques, every woodturner can have greater success and a more enjoyable woodturning experience.
