The Ohio River Valley Chapter will meet on Saturday and Sunday, Oct 26th and 27th, at the Columbus Woodcraft.
Participants must send an RSVP email for the meeting to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. (That should route to David Conley - members may also email him directly using the email address in the SAPFM Member Directory).  Keep an eye on the forum post for this meeting for any updates. 
 
1) For those arriving on Friday night with no dinner plans, we will meet in the hotel lobby at 6:00pm. If you would like to join us, RSVP for Friday night dinner, so we won’t leave without you.

2) Saturday’s lunch will again be from Subway. That continues to go over well at the meetings. Cost will be around $10/person. If you are coming to the meeting, please RSVP for the Meeting. If you do RSVP and life happens and you have to cancel, please let me know of the change. I use the head count to judge the amount of food to order for Saturday’s lunch.

AGENDA​

SATURDAY, October 26, 2024
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.


2a) Introductions and Show & Tell, 11:00 - 11:30am
Name, where you live, your past and present projects, classes, and/or your particular interest and your Show & Tell item if you brought one. …

Also, we will have another swap meet. If you've got something to sell or trade, please bring it.
