June's meeting

 A t June's Ted continued his demonstration of drilling and fitting angled legs for a stool. Then Richard showed his method of edge jointing boards for a panel using a handplane to create a sprung joint.

We also discussed fund raising activities and Chris will look into legal or tax issues related to us making and selling items.

We also are trying to finalize plans for the workshops on Oct. 14 and 15 to cover furniture design and marquetry. Please save these dates. There will probably be a nominal charge for members and if we need we may open it to non-members for a market rate fee.
