In this class, Jack Morse showed how to turn a full size basebell cap out of a piece of Ambrosia Maple. The key is to make it thin and keep it wet to avoid splitting. He showed that not all woods are suitable for the subsequent "bending of the bill" with an example of a cap made from Bradford Pear.
