This months meeting was attended by 5 members and one guest. Our guest Carl was a wood turner with an interest in woodcarving.

There was a lot of discussion on different methods of tool sharpening. Mike brought in his power sharpener ( sorry I didn't get the brand) and gave a demo on sharpening gouges.
 
Mike also shared his new carving mallet, a 28 oz.Lignun Vitae ( tree of life)
from the UK.
 
 
Several carvers brought in new carvings for our display case in Woodworkers Emporiums main store.
Rod brought in a tortoise and a dog.
Scott brought in a caricature cowboy.
John brought in  a boot carving in progress to share.
And Randy brought in a 3 bird carvings on one of the branches from Dennis last month.
