CJWA January Meeting: Open Mike Night
Monday, January 31, 2011 at 7:59AM Despite the snowstorm and the rescheduling, there were a lot of members participating in the Open Mike Night at the first CJWA meeting of 2011. So without further ado:
Joe Ferraro showed a box made with double dovetails using the Incra jig.
William Duffield brought a bench-on-a-bench that he uses for detail work.
Matt Greco made a beautiful carpenters square out of scrap wood.
Matt Kestenbaum brought a prototype for a table with parabolic legs that he is in the process of designing.
Doug Poray demonstrated a way to easily find the center of a dowel.
Ray Ostrow showed some pens that he made for Steve Altman’s wife.
Jerry Van de Sande showed pictures of his “El Cheapo Roubo” that he made. The leg vise is made with a screw from a prohibition-era wine press that his family had.
Paul Dzioba showed some pictures from the recent Williamsburg conference.
Frank Lovero showed a gorgeous chair that he made with wood salvaged from the dumpster.
John Steinmetz demonstrated a very clever jig that his father made to sharpen scrapers.
And finally, Frank Vucolo brought a Federal accent table in progress.
