This Month's Meeting

August 21, 2008
BRING A CHAIR
Socialize 6:30 PM, Meeting starts 7 PM



NAME TAG CONTEST - Make a wooden name tag and bring it.

Long time member and sharpening wizard Don Naples will "sharpen" our skills about sharpening. Don has a company called Wood Artistry located in Healdsburg where he manufactures incredible looking speaker cabinets. For a closer look see his web site at http://www.woodartistry.com/

In addition, he has developed a mechanical sharpening system called a Lap Sharp which is quite unusual. It is also shown and described on his web site.

Don has contributed extensively to the knowledge of woodworking and has shared it with anyone who is interested. Some of the topics he has covered can be found on the following web site. http://www.sawmillcreek.org/search.php?searchid=2282015

So if you want to learn different sharpening techniques from simple to elaborate and how to care for water stones, this is the meeting for you.

Also, hopefully we will have members' Show and Tell or jigs and fixtures. Perhaps, a Tool and Tech and Library talks.
