SAPFM – ORV Chapter,
1) Sept 9 and 10th was the only weekend that the Woodcraft Store had open this Fall. Ohio State has a home football game against Youngstown State University. So, Columbus will be crazy. But, I was able to get a block of room at the hotel that we have been staying at. Depending on when the game starts, the Saturday dinner could be a challenge.
2) You may want to go ahead and reserve your hotel room.
Cheers,
David
SATURDAY, Sept 9, 2023
1. Open doors at 10:00am
Arrive, relax, have some coffee
2. Introductions and Show & Tell, 11:00am – 12:00pm
The “show and tell” is an ice breaker. Please bring anything you would like to show off. If you have a special piece, a project or even a jig, please bring them. For those who haven’t attended a previous meeting, this is a quick introduction, a display of your skills, interests, projects both past and present, jig, etc. It can even be a request for help in a particular area. After we go around the room, we will break for 30 min. During this break, you can seek out the other members who have similar interests and/or have already built a project/jig you want to build. This break will give you the opportunity to meet and establish a new friendship, pick their brains, and continue communicating with them after the meeting. This is extremely helpful for highly specialized niches, like inlays, marquetry, carving, Bombay chest, etc.

Name, where you live, your past and present projects, classes, and/or your particular interest and your Show & Tell item if you brought one. …
