Northern Illinois Woodturners Meeting - 2/19/20

 

Mike Fleetwood showed us methods of Threading Wood as the March challenge. He demonstrated Saw & Chisel, the Simon Hope jig and the
Tap & Die method. Another method discussed was Thread Chasing with specialized hand tools.  Check out this Hand Chasing Threads video
by Sam Angelo on YouTube.

 

Mike reminded us of Turn On! Chicago on July 24-26 and the AAW Symposium in St Louis.  See the Turn-On! Chicago website at: www.turnonchicago.com.  Click on this to learn more about the AAW Annual International Symposium in St. Louis, Missouri.  Also, take a look at the newly designed AAW website. www.woodturner.org.  Create an account and get a 3 month free Affiliate Membership.

 

Don't forget we will have our pen Turn-A-Thon on February 29th. That's next Saturday from this writing. 
The annual picnic date is set for Sunday, the 26th of July.  Do we have a coordinater for that event? 

 

And lets get your club dues paid up!
