Don Shubaly, our Event Coordinator, is looking for your help for presentations at meetings this season. We’re looking to learn from the talent and experience of our membership. Consider giving a 5 to 30 minute (really, just a few minutes is fine) introduction and discussion on a topic of your choice. Make it a demonstration, a show of photos, or let us see your work live! |
||
| Here are some possible ideas. | ||
| Pick from these potential topics or choose your own | ||
| Sharpening chisels | Cutting box joints | Drilling and drill bits |
| Gluing and clamping (basic) | Table saw safety | Using previously used wood |
| Clamping shapes | Safe use of chemicals | Plane a flat surface |
| Wood identification | Using a Dremel tool | Finish restoration |
| Wood moisture and drying | Make a groove/dado | Using waxes |
| Shop safety | Dumpster wood | Design principles |
| Wood properties and movement | Book reviews | Carving basics |
| Wood staining | Cutting box joints | Using a belt sander |
| Wood painting | Table saw safety | Sharpening plane blades |
| Wood colouring | Using sandpaper | Squaring tools and instruments |
| Measuring for cutting | Wood finishes | Plane an edge/ endgrain |
| Using chisels | Measuring instruments | Wood fasteners (screws/nails) |
| Using a hand saw | Cutting mitres | Squaring tools and instruments |
| Using a hammer | Using a router | Using scrapers |
| Topics can be combined, but most importantly you can pick your own topic or readily add to this list of things you’d like to learn about. Please speak to Don at a meeting or send him an email. | ||
