November 3rd is a special date. Why? Because Vic Tesolin is our featured speaker for our Zoom meeting this first Tuesday in November. Vic built a new woodshop. He will be taking us on a tour of his shop and sprinkling the tour with knowhow on the important features of a shop. If you have been thinking of building or improving your workshop, this is a must-attend meeting. Look for an invitation via email to join the meeting. It will take place from 7 to 9 PM on Tuesday November 3rd.

Presenters included: Jack Forsberg, who showed up with his old-timey, custom made, tool boxes replete with a traditional hand tools; Joe Federer, who demonstrated violin neck and head carving; George Fouriezos, with his box glue ups along with his 3 D printed corner clamping jigs; and Norman Pirollo, who employed a traditional miter jack and Japanese hand saws to create precision tenons.
