that I am, I had to run out and<br />
buy one for myself. I think I<br />
will get lots of good use out if it<br />
and you can see if you need one<br />
too or if you just want to keep<br />
throwing all those extra bowls<br />
out with the shavings.<br />
September<br />
July<br />
July will be Graeme Priddle.<br />
Take a look at his web site<br />
(http://graemepriddle.com/) and<br />
see what you think. We will be<br />
having classes after the demo so<br />
start saving your pennies and be<br />
ready to be amazed. He comes<br />
all the way from New Zealand<br />
and makes some amazing things.<br />
He uses a lot of nature’s inspiration<br />
in his turnings and living<br />
near the ocean really shows in<br />
his work. He will conduct an<br />
all-day demo and most likely a 2<br />
day class so sign up early.<br />
August<br />
Jack Boggio will be conducting<br />
our August demo. He hails from<br />
Fallbrook and started out as a<br />
carver. He has since started turning<br />
and he adds some beautiful<br />
carving techniques to his turnings.<br />
He has a web site (http://<br />
www.timberstotreasures.com/index.<br />
html) that you can check out<br />
and see some of his work. He is<br />
going to show us some interesting<br />
Christmas Ornaments early<br />
enough we might actually get<br />
them done before Christmas.<br />
Well maybe not me but some of<br />
you should have them mastered<br />
by then. He will show us how he<br />
adds some simple (so he says)<br />
carvings to the center of his<br />
ornaments. I am looking forward<br />
to seeing how he accomplishes<br />
the holes to see inside the ornaments.<br />
And I don’t mean he<br />
makes a funnel like I make.<br />
September will be our Tools and<br />
Techniques demo. This is where<br />
you get to try out a new technique<br />
and learn from out Mentors.<br />
We will have stations set up<br />
both inside and outside (if it’s<br />
not raining) to allow you some<br />
hands-on training. You can try<br />
out a new tool or learn how to<br />
use a bottom of the bowl gouge.<br />
It’s all up to you. We have the<br />
stations set up and you take your<br />
pick.<br />
Our club has lots of opportunity<br />
to learn how to create something<br />
new or just increase your skills<br />
in you hobby of choice. Come<br />
on down to the meeting and see<br />
what you can do with the knowledge.
