150th Chapter of the American Association of Woodturners May 2017
THE CHIP FLYERFrom the President’s NotebookWith May comes the end of the Woodturning 101 program. With this year’s classeswe guided about a dozen people through the program. Next fall we will only havespots for 8 students and there are about 4 spots still open. I would like to againthank the instructors for their time and efforts to make the program a success.
Our Spring competition at Exotic Woods had a great showing of the clubs talent. Itwas fantastic to see the new-segmented class so well entered. The number ofoverall entrants was impressive and made most of the categories close to judge. Iwould like to congratulate the winners and let you know that we will get you themissing ribbons at our June meeting. Thanks to Exotic-Woods for supporting theGuild and hosting the event again this year.
Those who wandered down to Orchard Park, NY on May 27 to see Beth Ireland(http://bethireland.net) had a very interesting day. Being Memorial Day weekend, thelocals were limited in numbers so our group was great for their demo. Beth showedhow to work through turning a small guitar or banjo, from body to the tip of the neck. She runs a program todevelop professional woodturners at the Centre for Furniture Craftsmanship in Maine and after seeing her skills atthis demo, you can understand why she is so well qualified to head this program.
This month’s hands-on evening will be our yard sale again this year. I hope to have Brian run the meeting, as I willbe doing a demo at Thames Valley that evening. You have a few days left to get into your shops and sort through thestuff you have doubles or triples of and bring them in to see if other guild members want to buy them.
Our Annual General meeting will end our season. You will get the yearly review info in the next few days to readover before the meeting. It looks like all the current executive members whose terms are up have agreed to continueon for another term. I would like to thank them for the support they have provided to the guild for the past 2 yearsand look forward to working with them in the coming year again. Our final demo of the year will be done by DonSvob, covering using CA glue as a finishing.

Remember that if you put in an order for Starbond CA withStockroom Supply, they will bring it to the meeting so youwill not need it shipped. Make sure you get your order in acouple of days before the meeting (June 15th) so that theyhave time to get everything pull together. Thanks a lot toDon for arranging this with them.
I want to extend thanks again to all the volunteers whohave stepped up to help throughout the year. Without theadditional support, the guild could not run as smoothly as itdoes. Just a few of the tasks our volunteers do throughoutthe year includes organizing the kitchen snacks and drinks
