On May 6th we will be back in the Hillcrest Lodge in Mt Vernon, and this month’s program will be presented by four of our own members. As usual, everyone is still encouraged to bring items for our normal Bring and Brag session, then after the break, four members will each do a special bring and brag presentation. Bill Baer, our Toys for Tots chairman, will talk about the process of building a toy logging truck and will show us the finished product. Geoff Peterson creates one-of-a-kind furniture pieces and will describe his three part wood ebonizing technique including an actual demonstration. Jim Bucknell showed his unique curved four drawer case at the April meeting, and will go into all the details on how he did it. Jerry Couchman, our program chairman, will do a presentation on how he built a 300 pound 4ft by 10ft live edge Sapele dining table for one of his clients.

"My eyes have been filled with the endlessly changing patterns of the grains. I have felt the warmth of a thousand suns in my hands every day. I have smelled the rich, tangy odors of the freshly hewn chips. These are the things that have made my life so fine."
Jonas Wainwright, 1832
