Guild Meeting April 10

Gummi Bears having a meeting .... waiting for Kevin to show them his new stuff.








There will be a Helena Woodworkers Guild meeting at All Wood Design on Tuesday, April 10th at 5:30 pm. All Wood is located at 1310 Boulder Avenue. Kevin has some new equipment for us to see and there will be snacks, so bring something to drink.

If you missed the last meeting, we have a new Guild website courtesy of Maureen Shaughnessy (Tim's wife.) You can find our website titled, Sawdust & Shavings, at www.helenawoodworkers.com with the email for sending in articles, photos or announcements is helenawoodworkers@gmail.com. Take a look and let us know what you think. (editor's note: if you're reading this online, you're probably already at the Guild's new website.)

See you at the meeting.

Thanks to Elisa Koor for her gummi bear photo ... Maureen thinks they add a light note to our meeting announcement.

I would personally, and as a member of the Guild, like to extend my sympathy to Bruce Ewals and his family on the loss of their father. Bruce's father died March 27th, 2007, here in Helena. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, Bruce.

Famous Actor Woodworker

I learned something today about one of my favorite male actors -- William Macy -- is a fine woodworker as well as being an exceptionally fine actor! Due out in May is a collection from Fine Woodworking of their best woodturning projects, titled Woodturning Basics. William Macy is on the cover -- he turns wood bowls. Check is out on the newstands in May, or for a preview of an interview with Macy, click here.

btw -- check out that clock in the background on Macy's shop wall... cool, eh?
