The meeting was held on August 25, 2020 via Zoom. In attendance were Jim Cera, Fred Guendel, Ed Nikles, Jim Mathews, Rick Wortman, Patty Jennings, Seth Riehl, Scott Hendricks, Carl Beaulieu and Mike Peacock.
Treasurer Rick Wortman reported current club funds to total $920 but that only 12 members have paid dues for 2020. He also stated that Peters Valley is currently not including club turned pieces in their gallery sales.
Participants discussed NJ Woodturners generosity in including our members in their weekly Zoom clinics and demos and agreed we’d continue to participate. It was also agreed that the challenge project for the September meeting would be a scoop.
Show and tell for this meeting featured the mortar and pestle challenge pieces. These can be seen in detail in the earlier “Club Challenge” post. Rick Wortman also showed a very deep natural edge bowl and Ed Nikles presented several pieces he’d made from half of a single white oak burl. These can be viewed in the Gallery.
Next meeting is tentatively set for September 23rd.
