2nd Piedmont Craftsmen meeting

[Kyle]

3rd Sunday in March 1-3:30 or a tad longer.

I believe the agreed upon topic is Walking sticks by Robert Underwood. I really meant to post this earlier.

Robert let me know if you need more time or want to delay into April.


Please list if you have a desire to attend.

I also need to know if there is another volunteer for the next one.

 

[PeteM]

Sounds good to me. I'll be there.

[LeftyTom]

Dare I ask where?

 

[nelsone]

Tom, I think the plan is to keep this at Kyle's farm. You should definitely go if you can. I've got a few things going on, but I'm going to try and make it again.

 

[Tarhead]

I'll be going. Carpool from Concord?

 

[Kyle]

Still haven't heard from Robert whether he will be sharing the knowledge. We are still tentatively slated for the third sunday in march..

It's me :gar-Bi.Yes I'll be there:icon_thum.And yes I can do the stick thang.That is if thats what everyone wants.Will we be starting from scratch{going out and finding them}or just me doing a demo ? Which ever is good with me.Ya'll let me know it don't take any fancy tools. All I use is a good sharp pocket knife. But we can figure out more when it gets closer.Just hope it don't rain.:kermit:

 

[LeftyTom]

I cannot make it. March 16, I am flying to Richardson TX for a week of training.

 

[Robert Arrowood]

Thanks Mike I cut the one with the vines twisty sticks.I cut them at least 6ft. Just in case the split as they dry. Eather way is fine with me or we could just cut some at Kyles? Just bring your boots and a knife.I keep a small saw in the truck.Never know when I might want to take a walk in the woods.:icon_scra

 

[Tarhead]

Jerry and others from the N. Charlotte/Concord/Kannapolis/Salisbury/Stanly County area:
We can meet at the new Target shopping center area off I-85 exit 54 at ~12pm that Sunday and go from there. Regular is $3.14/gal in Concord today. YIKES!!!!!

 

[Robert Arrowood]

Mike when I look for sticks I keep in mind "or try". The smaller the stick the less weight it will hold.And on the other side of the coin.If you get too big you can't carry it.When I first started I cut anything.:dontknow: But as time goes on I get kinda picky.But if you want to bring some go ahead.Try to stay away from oak you need a jackhammer to get the bark off.:eusa_naug:eusa_naug

 

[Robert Arrowood]

Well it's about a week away.I was just wondering how many were coming? The more the marrier:kermit:.I haven't been able to get any sticks yet :gar-Cr.Mabe Sat.? But everyone bring you boots Kyle said at the last get together we could cut some there. Looking foward to seeing everyone!:eusa_danc

 

[nelsone]

Hey Robert, I hope to be there and I'm up for trekking through the woods! Should we bring a small hatchet or saw?

 

[rbdoby]

Hey Mike,

I missed the first meeting so I don't know how to get there. Wanna truck pool so you can show me the way?

[Robert Arrowood]

Hello Ed it might not hurt to bring a small saw. I use a 17in. handsaw with aggresive cut.It works great for me.I do hope to see you there so I can shake your hand for those great pens.

 

[LeeNC]

I am going to try and make it. I have to check the family schedule and see what is already planned.
