This month's meeting will be our annual Hand Plane Seminar with our member experts Neal White, Harold Patterson and Don Naples.

This has been a very popular meeting where members learn how to adjust a plane. Where to get irons. How to deal with rust and most importantly what is the best type of plane to use for specific jobs. From last month's meeting, Jay suggested that there should be 6 planes that woodworkers cannot do without. Here is your chance to see them and many others. At the August meeting, members were actually able to try out planes of various kinds. This meeting will show you what to buy and how to take care of them once you have them.
