Reply requested! (Oct meeting opportunity)

Update: The October meeting has been canceled. The demonstrator will not be able to attend due to unforeseen circumstances. The November meeting has been canceled, as well, due to the Lyndon House being used for voting during that time.

Fellow Woodturners, we are trying to get Ken Rizza from Woodturners Wonders to demo at our next meeting in October.  Ken Riza always does an interesting demo.  

Woodturners wonders has great products including CBN grinding wheels and accessories. We can order any items on woodturnerswonders.com. We will get 10% off the website price plus no shipping plus the club will get 20% of the order in the form of gift certificates that we will give away during club raffles. This is a great deal.  If you are interested, please email me (lkudon@gmail.com) with the items you want. I will put the order together and send it to Ken. 

Ken will also have his air filtering system at $1100 which is a big discount from the web price.

This will be a great meeting with an auction of a bowl by Lynn Reece and a collection of top-notch turning books given away at the raffle.

If we can’t put together an order of about $1500 for all our members together then the deal is off.
