April 21 – FLWT Monthly Meeting and Jim Echter Demonstration
You Want How Many to Look Alike?
Our meeting on Thursday April 21st begins at 6:30 with informal discussions via Zoom, and the business meeting begins at 7:00pm. After the meeting, Jim will take us through the layout and design process he uses to minimize errors and project complexity. Then he’ll show us the wide variety of story sticks he has created for small and large sized projects. Next will be an overview of the tools he uses to layout the different transitional dimensions on a blank. From there, he’ll explain the “point to point” method of turning duplicates.
Time allowing, together we’ll design a short table leg, create the story stick and turn the leg with Jim explaining all the “point to point” steps. Then he’ll turn a second one to match in real time so you can see just how easy it is to turn duplicates.
This is a highly requested topic that attendees of Jim’s “Ask the Woodturner” interactive remote demo series he offers on a regular basis. Together let’s learn how to take the stress out of turning duplicates.
Do you break out in a sweat if you have to make two or more turnings the same? Have you turned down requests because you don’t know how easy it is to turn duplicates? If so, this demo is for you.
Zoom information will be emailed to members a few days in advance of the meeting.
