 TOP-A-THON

As directed by Gil, the main activity at Monday's 1/23 meeting will be a topathon in preperation for the Somerset Woodworking show February.24/26. The idea is, of course, to build up a good supply of tops for the Somerset show. Gil has already made arrangements for the wood that is needed for this activity and it will be at the meeting. Gil is hoping that some of our hot top turner members will participate in the effort but all members are encouraged to participate..
