Alamo Woodturners,
If you are going to SWAT (or are just in Waco) Thursday, August 21st, it has been a tradition to gather at the Rudy's Bar-B-Que in Waco at our normal meeting time of 6:30pm for supper and fellowship. This is a great time to talk shop, and has been a highlight of SWAT for years. I hope to see all who attend there.
Sincerely,
James Carter, President
Woodturners,
During an event at my shop I brought out a product that is no longer available; an M2 Taper Cleaner. Many admired it and even after a deep web look that design was no longer available. That being said, Brenda got with a friend who has a 3D-printer and they took the dimensions of the tool I had and reproduced it. I have attached a picture of 2 that were sent to me, one having been used to clean out my student lathes, and can verify that they work VERY well. We are getting a bunch made and will be able to offer them for $10 a piece (I think I paid $20 for my original one) to any one that wants one. Please email Brenda at: michael_brenda99@yahoo.com to let her know you want one they will be ready by the August Bowl meeting.
Thanks,
James Carter, President
Our mission is to promote wood turning from the novice to the advanced turner.
