Program

Our guest speaker for September will be Gregory Finn.
"My name is Gregory Finn, I am a woodworker from Fairfax, CA. I recently finished two years at the Krenov School of Fine Woodworking in Fort Bragg, CA!"
"I’m presenting a box I made in my second and final year at the Krenov School. The construction incorporates multiple techniques that are vital to making curved work, specifically compound curves in both solid and veneer work. In addition to the curves, this project was also a gauntlet of both drawer fitting and dovetailing, with over 262 dovetail pins in the entire box."
