November 2007 Message from the President:

It’s beginning to look a lot like……………..

Yes, it is that time of year and plans are in the works for the annual Holiday pot luck, to be held at the Pyle Center on December 15, 2007, at noon. Unfortunately, my lovely wife and I will be out of town. Those interested in exchanging Christmas tree ornaments are encouraged to do so. Make an ornament, wrap it, and bring it along with your favorite dish of food. Additionally, please bring a stuffed toy that will be donated to the Crisis Nursery in Mesa.

November was a turning month! Stuart Batty made his presence known with a fantastic demonstration held in Sun City. Stuart dazzled the crowd with his extraordinary skills. I would like to thank the members of the Sun City clubs and especially Bill Kram for making the venue available for Stuart.

Stuart’s demonstration was only a part of the excitement. He provided club members the opportunity of receiving tutelage at a reasonable fee. He offered a two day technique class, as well as a three day projects class. The two day class is a prerequisite for the three day class. Do not be surprised to see Stuart in the not to distant future. The classes would not have been possible without Chuck LaRue generously loaning us his studio for the workshops. Thank again Chuck.

The regular monthly meeting was a great success. Vince Sichmeller gave us an informative and interesting demonstration. Vince had not done a demo for the club prior to this, and it looks like he had a pretty good time. Vince is a volunteer with the Symposium Committee and he has been contacting the potential demonstrators. Thanks Vince.

The end of the year is approaching, making it time to pay your dues. Avoid the rush, see Collin at the next meeting.

Web Site Information:

Our website has some beneficial links.  Some connect you to local woodturners and businesses.  Others, such as “Buy Tools” and “Arizona Woodturner’s Merchandise” can benefit the club.  When you buy a tool or an article of clothing at the above mentioned links the club gets a percentage of the purchase price.  We are all looking for good deals on tools and clothes.  What could be better than getting a good item at a fair price and part of the cost going to your woodturning club?

All pictures taken at our monthly meeting will be placed in the photo album. Only pictures with a name on the bottom of the turning and paid members will have pictures placed in the photo album. We can save each months picture through out the month this way. To see the pictures, click on the Photo Album link, and when that opens, click on the Gallery link. These pictures will still be added to your personal photo album.

Our Buy Tools page is still working the same way. If you are going to purchase a tool, and it is shown on our Buy Tools page. Going through this area to purchase your tool helps out our club. We get a small return on each purchase and so far it has been paying for our web site. Keep up the good work. 

Pictures in the Photo Gallery can be enlarged by clicking on them and then clicking a second time to see the full size picture. Once a quarter, the older pictures will be deleted to make room for the newer pictures. This helps keep our web site speed at it's best quality.
