Come see us at the New England
Woodworking Show,
to be held at the "Big E" fairgrounds, West Springfield, MA. The annual
event draws woodworkers of all kinds from around New England and
elsewhere.
I'll be joining other members of the
Western Mass Woodturners
club in our booth there. We'll be promoting woodturning, and doing some
turning for you to see. If you're new to turning, or are curious about
it, this is a good opportunity to ask all those questions you've thought
about. And you're more than welcome to join the club, no matter what
your turning skill level may be. We help each other learn more about the
craft, and are happy to help newcomers get started. The club holds
monthly meetings, which include a live turning demo to learn from.
This national show is a great chance to see woodworking equipment
vendors and demonstrators up close and personal, and to go home with
some good buys too. There's plenty to see (and buy!).
The show runs Friday 12-6, Saturday 10-6, and Sunday 10-3. I'll be there
Friday and Saturday, but the club booth will be manned all three days.
Hope to see you there.
Update, Jan 12, 2015
The show was a success, and we kept three lathes busy for three days. Here are a few photos taken of our booth and members.
