Vince Keipper will be demonstrating how he makes ice cream scoops and bottle stoppers.  Vince has been a woodturner for about four years and loves to show the grain and beauty of different woods.  He likes to make practical items like scoops and stoppers as well as bowls and platters.  Vince is very active in SPW and we are excited for him giving his first demonstration.  Please join us via zoom on Tuesday evening.  Feel free to invite friends from other clubs to join us.

ZOOM Link is below.

Our meeting starts at 6:30pm.   Cindy has created a waiting room within Zoom for anyone who logs in early so that you can chat with other early arrivals.   Remember, this is yet another new process for us so be patient as we work through any snags in the system. 

The MONTHLY CHALLENGE project for June is a 3” OR TALLER FINIAL. Please consider making one item for the challenge or provide one show and tell item that you have recently turned to share with the club.  You will need to make sure your AUDIO and VIDEO are on when connecting to Zoom.  Please see our website for information on the meeting and Zoom.

SPW meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. due to the COVID19 restrictions our meetings are currently being provided via ZOOM. We have ample openings for everyone to attend our meetings under our new “normal” environment.
