Miscellaneous

 

Two important symposia are coming up in October put on by the North Carolina group (Turning and Learning) and the Ohio Valley Woodturners Guild (Turning 2009).

The Ohio Valley Woodturners Guild had their trailer, with their lathes in it, stolen. If anyone is approached about a "real deal" on some Jet lathes, call them.

I have included links to pictures of the "Show and Tell" items as well as a link to the website. Those who do not have email addresses listed with me will receive the usual hardcopy newsletter by US snailmail. Any others who wish a newsletter by mail should let me know.

Please send me pictures of your work (CD, email, memory stick - - any JPEG file) so that I can add it to the gallery.

The Newsletter with pictures is also available on the website.
