Ok, here is your chance to either volunteer or ask for a specific demo!

We will also have the bags for our contest to hand out during this meeting, which will give you an entire 3 months to complete a pen for our September meeting.

Let me hear what you folks want for the rest of the meeting!

 

[Steve Busey]

Robert, thanks again for your dedicated service for this group!

 

[Rojo22]

Steve and club members

Thank you for the kind words! This group makes it enjoyable and fun to be a part of!

Barring any unforeseen circumstances I should be seeing everyone there! If you need me for a demo I'd be happy to do one.

 

[southernclay]

I should be there. Open to any demos, pen photography, marketing would be good if anyone would like to share or have an open discussion. I have zero interest in shows but starting to think about approaching galleries, stores or maybe Etsy.

Looking forward to it!
Warren

Stepanie and I would be very interested in a demo of creating a "kit less" pen

 

[vcostolo]

maybe a demo for inlays or using decals in penmaking.... Do the meetings usually last the entire time?? This is my first one.

Define want type of inlay your talking about. As far as decals, I can do that unless someone else is up for a chance to do a demo

Those are made by Constant at lazerlinez, He comes to some of the meetings, I'm sure I could talk him in to doing a demo

Lol...I'm up for it! I'm getting better with that demo the more I do them.

Decals and/or inlays are all you buddy.

 

[Russell Eaton]

I may make a surprise visit if I am still welcome. I have a bunch of big leaf maple burl pen blanks that have been stabilized. I had Constant stabilize them do they are done right.

 

[Steve Busey]

Bring it on, Russell! You can display the pen blanks in that 19" BLM NE bowl!

 

[Brooks803]

Hey Robert,
Any idea of what demo's you'd like? I've gotten a few more PM's asking if I'd do another kitless one.

 

[Steve Busey]

do another kitless one.

Kitless, sure. Topless? Not again... :bulgy-eyes:

:tongue:

Get there early enough, and you can have all the free Woodcraft coffee & doughnuts you can eat, David! :wink:

 

[Gary Beasley]

Wish I could be there but I flying to California Friday to see the youngest son graduate at Stanford.

 

[Steve Busey]

Wish I could be there...

Sorry we'll miss you Gary. I'll bring those spalted elm pens I got from your blanks. Haven't tried the cherry stick yet. So much to do, so little time...

What, no pictures?

 

[Steve Busey]

Actually, I have to finish the second blank tonight :redface:, and get a Liberty pencil kit Saturday. I bought three pencil kits on my last Woodcraft visit, but got them home and found I had two pen and one pencil kit (though they were all labeled as pencils).

 

[Gary Beasley]

I'll be looking in while I'm away. Look forward to seeing what you get from those blanks.

 

[southernclay]

I've got some red cedar for free I'll be bringing down with me if anybody wants some.

 

[Rojo22]

Ok everyone, I hope I replied to everyone about the demos and everything for tomorrow. I hope to see everyone there!

 

[papaturner]

Another great meeting!
Thanks to Robert and Robin for even more hard work and thank you to Woodcraft for the hospitality they show us at every meeting.
Thanks to our adopted South Carolina son Jonathan Brooks for a great demo.
Good to have a new comer Rainey Horne with us too.

If you are in the Georgia area you really ought to come to our meetings. The fellowship is good and you will most likely learn a bit from the great talent these folks have.

Good to see everyone.

 

[Brooks803]

Thanks Perry. I had a lot of fun doing the demo. Happy to do as many as needed.

Also, I'm about to post pics of the pen from the demo in the SOYP forum :wink:

 

[turncrazy43]

As always a great meeting and Jonathon's demo of kitless pen. New members as well. Sept 13 and Dec 27 meeting dates set. Hope everyone can attend.
