Our regular October meeting, on Thursday October 18, will feature Erv Tschanz who is going to demonstrate turning a German folk art tree. This is an ornament which is a 5-tier tree on an off-set base (multiple center points).

Erv has made these from yew branches, but will he will bring a sample from regular lumber w/ off-set axis points of 1/4” and 1/2”. He will describe each of the tools that he uses, and the special grind he puts on them. Some of the turning will be done left-handed ( because it’s easier).

As is our usual practice, the meeting will begin at 6:00 pm with Show and Share, and a brief business/info session at 6:30 and then Erv’s demonstration.
