Hand Tool Special Interest Group
Requirements: Intro to the Guild.
Topic for April 25th, 2024:
Presenter: Ruth Warbington
" Working with green wood "
an introduction to the tools and methods
Curious about green woodworking? Check out the various tools used to split and work green wood. See how local wind-felled ash can be split, rived and shaved into chair, stool, or table parts. Give it a try yourself. We'll have wood, tools and shave horses available. Spoons? Bring a piece of still-wet hardwood from the recent storms to start a spoon. Share your green woodworking experience and projects with others. Experienced users of green wood for making chairs, spoons, of other items please come and share your knowledge.
I look forward to seeing you there.
