Programs for 2010 Monthly Meetings

 
January – How to build and use a Sharpening Station with Bob Reese – Video and comments.

Feb. 16th   Paul Jalbert - Making Wooden Signs and Plaques
Despite modern advances in sign-making techniques, carved wooden signs and plaques continue to attract and hold our attention.  Typically found at professional buildings, at apartment complex entrances and everywhere in state parks, carved wooden signs and plaques employ the “third-dimension” to convey a sense of tradition, stability, and strength.  Once you start looking for them, they’re everywhere!    The essential features of a wooden sign are lettering and a sense of depth that is achieved by cutting–in and building-out.  Interviews with area sign-makers have contributed to an informative presentation that will investigate sign lay-out, materials, construction methods and installation.
