On a cold day in March, a number of members of the RCWA descended on Rollie's shop to talk tools, tactics, and techniques of Woodworking. Rollie had the shop nicely heated and ready for visitors.
Attendees included Rick Weisbeck, Darwin Buus, Richard Rasmussen, Larry Borg, Bob and Kathie Buchanan, and Dean (woodworker friend of Rollie's), and Rollie and Norma Lynde. Norma served coffee and hot home-made caramel rolls after the shop talk was done.
Shop tour started in the shop on the back side of the house and continued to the storage sheds in the back yard. |
Rollie demonstrated all his crafty devices including his shop vac with remote that he connects to all power tools on the workbench, and his tip for chip collection at the drill press using spring clips and a 32 gallon garbage sack. The new DeWalt scrollsaw certainly got a few looks as well. The fireplace in the rear corner of the shop serves to help with wood disposal as well as keep the shop nice and toasty on a cold spring day.
Thanks for hosting Rollie and thank you Norma for the tasty treats!
