    thanks Eastern NC woodworkers!

    I wanted to thank everyone who came to the 'meet and greet' last night. We talked about the mechanics of forming a guild, goals, potential issues, names, machinery, member benefits, etc. Now that the conversation has been started we have a lot to think about. We agreed to hold a second meeting...

    very nice write up from Mary May!

    Mary May taught a fantastic 2 day carving class at The North Carolina Furniture School recently and shared this write up with me so I thought I would share it with you. She was delightful to host and I look forward to having her teach another workshop next year! https://www.marymaycarving.com/blog/

    Woodwright's School

    Just thought I'd share my experience last weekend at Roy's school. I was signed up for the class on Dovetails and Mortise and Tenon Joints as a birthday present from my better half (she rocks!). I have never attempted dovetails (read about 'em plenty, just never took the leap) but I have...

    All, we've been looking for a couple of old school desks in the Raleighwood area and so far have struck out. There used to be someone at the NC Flea market that always had some a few years ago but there wasn't any to be found there last weekend. I located someone in Kinston who has a bunch...

    Great day at the Woodwright's School!

    Blurry picture, but yes, it did happen: We did these projects: No one finished the spiral or book stand there; we moved one as soon as everyone had made it through the tough steps. I also came home with a piece of wood to carve a chain and ball-in-a-cage from, which Roy demoed, but we...
