With our first workshop in February, we are nearing the end of our tracing exercises.  We did trace more critters today, and some caravans. 

We started drilling holes for windows in wheeled vehicles, and drilled some axles in wheeled vehicles.  Critters and Love Bugs were cut out on scroll saws.  Holes for scroll-sawing of van windows was done as well.  Love bugs were also cut on the band-saw.

We received a large number of boxes from Knecht's on Monday this past week, so have an adequate number of boxes for a while. Other boxes were brought in to the workshop today as well.

Four boxes of toys were returned from Jerry Hood and Ken Maron that are ready for sealing, sanding and final spray finish. This is phenomenal for February!

Several of the other boxed blanks were taken home with members to work on in their own shops.
