W OOD C HIPS April 2014 Volume 23, Issue 4 Sawdust & Woodchips Woodworking Association www.sawdustwoodchips.org T THIS MONTH’S EVENT! he next monthly meeting of the Sawdust & Woodchips Woodworking Association (SWWA) will be April 3rd starting at 6:30pm. Our special topic for the evening will be learning about the designing program called SketchUp. Maybe you’ve heard mention of someone designing their project with ‘CAD software’. When you look, you find out that CAD software is expensive and hard to use. Well, SketchUp is a CAD-type software tool that woodworkers can use. A free version is available – it’s called SketchUp M ake . So, come to the April meeting to learn more about this 3D modeling program from members Jason W rench and Justin P atrick . To help with your understanding, take some time before the meeting to download the free version. See the box below right for details. Our April meeting will also include a lot of “usuals”. We will have our usual Show & Tell session, our usual short business meeting, our usual 50/50 raffle, our usual tool raffle, and our usual snacks! We will also welcome back most of our members who spend 1 or 2 months in the south. But, we will add an unusual - a drawing for $50! What’s that? It is the drawing for the $50 award for your completed SWWA survey! We’ve only received about 50 completed surveys – just about 30% of those sent out. I know more of you have opinions! Please bring them to the meeting but if you aren’t planning on attending, go ahead and send your completed survey to the address on the form. We want to hear from you. We hope you will join us at the meeting. See you on April 3rd! Remember … Snacks are always welcome!  SCROLLING INTEREST GROUP MEETING M embers and guests of the Scrolling Interest Group will gather again on W ednesday, April 16 th at 6:30pm . The meeting will be held in the Community Room at Station 1 of the Belgium Cold Springs Fire Department at 7920 River Rd, Baldwinsville. (Directions on the website) Our meeting topic will be CUTTING SOLID SURFACE MATERIAL. Attendees will be given a piece of material and blades from which they are expected to create a piece to be shown at the May 21st meeting. Don’t forget to bring your projects for the Show & Tell session. While this meeting focuses on the use of scroll saws to create woodworking projects, many techniques that cross disciplines are discussed at these less formal meetings. All members of SWWA are welcome to attend and participate in the meetings.  Monthly Meeting Information Thursday, April 3, 2014 GETTING TO KNOW SKETCHUP with Jason Wrench & Justin Patrick Rem inder: Meeting starts at 6:30 PM and will be held at the Canton W oods Senior Center in Baldwinsville. Directions are on the back page and on the website. Download Sk etchUp M ak e Get ready for the April meeting by taking time to download SketchUp Make to your computer (laptop, tablet, etc.).

It’s the closest big woodworking show to Syracuse and well worth the trip! WoodChips – April 2014 Page 2 M PRESIDENT’S CORNER eteorological winter is over but we seem to be still having mini-snow showers. I just hope the warm up scheduled for next week continues! While we wait for the snow to melt, we all find other things to do inside or maybe go on few road trips! Road trip!?! We headed to Rochester last Saturday to attend the turning demonstration by Bob Rosand. That was fun plus we stopped at 1 of 3 bead stores in Rochester on the way home. This week we are both looking forward to the annual Show case organized by the Northeastern Woodworker’s Association in Saratoga Springs. If you’ve never attended, you really should consider going. The $10 admission fee gives you access to a big room filled with vendors and their products, the exhibition hall with a great collection of woodworking projects, and 16 seminars per day. You’ll see lots of your friends there also as several of us are there for the weekend. If you come, be sure to stop by the RJR Studios booth where Charlie and I will be helping out. Last year we counted about 55 people from Syracuse who attended the show. I met with several of my physicians this past week. Each is delighted with my health status. I still have a restriction on lifting over 20lbs but they say I am a miracle considering the huge tumor that invaded my body in 2011. Yeah! I feel good which is even better. Thank you to everyone who worried, prayed, and expressed concern. I think it is now on to the next challenge. What’s going on in the shop? I am working on a few projects as demo pieces for this weekend and planning some wedding gifts for my nephew. Charlie is turning and designing a six-pack carrier for my nephew to use as gifts for his groomsmen. At all meetings … don’t forget to turn those phones to vibrate and keep side conversations down to a whisper! Well it’s time to close but … Keep on creating! Barbara  T RAFFLE RESULTS he winner of the March 50/50 raffle of $89 was B ob Norton. Oneida Air donated a Dust Deputy DYI for the raffle and it was won by Dave Stow e .

Before heading south for a month of biking, Tony Baleno engaged Dan K napp from Oneida Air Systems to give attendees a great session. Dan started by emphasizing the importance of dust collection to our health, the safety of our shop, our time in the shop, and the long-term health of our equipment. He then focused on the best methods to obtain effective dust collection, discussed each type of dust collection, outlined issues with dust filters, explained how to calculate the CFMs needed for your shop, and finished with connecting dust collection to tools. A great selection of questions were asked at the end of the session, if not as Dan talked about an issue. Dan handled each with great skill. Thanks Dan for a great session and for the donation of a DYI Dust Deputy for our raffle! Before Dan took to the stage, we held our usual Show & Tell session with another great collection of projects! Bruce M eissner started us out talking about the cherry and ash 3 legged Bruce stool which he constructed recently. He also showed an ash workbench helper Meissner that works with a vise on his workbench to hold wood so it can be worked. Bruce found the helper design in Woodworker’s Journal. Unique items that stretch conventions are the specialty of Jim Y onk ers . This month Jim brought back the driftwood fish he showed in September. Unhappy with what he showed previously, he modified it to create a better piece by adding grass for the fish to swim between. Jim steamed the tips of each piece of grass which were created in the pasta maker. Charles About 30 years ago, Charles Trabold attended a canoeing Trabold seminar where he learned to make canoe paddles. Tonight he showed 3 different paddles – 1 bent and two traditional. Functional and beautiful! A cherry and walnut ukulele was shown by Jerry Higby . Jerry Jim noted it was easier and cheaper than making the mandolin he Yonkers showed at last year’s Challenge. He also said the hardware cost less than $10 vs. the $70 for the mandolin hardware. W ilbur Chatterton continues to work on toys for our annual donation at Christmas. Using scrap walnut, maple, and ash, Wilbur created two Jerry Higby tractors and a prototype cart. Chad Daw son talked about his maple 3-legged stool. Chad took up woodworking after retiring and always wanted to make a chair. He is starting out by making a stool and expects to graduate to the chair in time. For this stool he spent many hours investigating the best ways to build a sturdy stool finding that the best was to use a Wilbur Chatterton recessed mortise when attaching the legs to the seat. More details on this stool can be found in the March newsletter of the CNY Woodturners. Chad Dawson (continued on page 5) WoodChips – April 2014 Page 4 SWWA SCROLLING INTEREST GROUP Meeting Night: Third Wednesday of the Month at 6:30 pm Next Meeting: Wednesday, April 16th at the Belgium Cold Springs Station 1 Topic: Cutting Solid Surface Materials & Challenge for May! Also: Show & Tell & Woodworking Questions Answered A small group of folks attended the March meeting of SWWA’s Scrolling Interest Group. We reviewed baskets cut by a few members and then viewed and discussed a series of videos available on the internet: using an ink-jet printer to produce graphics; resurfacing a rusty saw; making a non-slip sanding pad; finishing fretwork. Four attendees showed baskets based on last month’s meeting. In the Show & Tell portion of the meeting, B ob Henry showed a walnut and maple oval box he scrolled a few years ago. The inside is flocked and he added felt feet and a brass knob. The pattern for Bob’s box was issued by Creative Woodworks & Crafts many years ago. I don’t believe it is still available. Andy LoConte showed the bowl he scrolled from Steve Good’s free pattern. As a new scroller, he is still learning how to stay on the lines. He also started a discussion on gluing layers when there is limited glue area. M ike W hite showed three baskets, two of the same stacked style where multiple progressively smaller baskets can be made from the layers and shown below right. The third basket requires a weaving process to assemble the outside of the basket. Patterns for both types of baskets can be obtained at Scroller Ltd.; BKSSB12 is the pattern set for the basket with staves while B264 has the pattern for the first basket. B arbara Raym ond-LaP rease showed a trinket box she is working on as well as another of a Steve Good basket pattern. The next meeting of the Scrolling Interest Group is Wednesday, April 16th at the Belgium Cold Springs Station 1 Community Room, 7920 River Road, Baldwinsville. We will be discussing CUTTING SOLID SURFACE MATERIALS like Corian®. Barbara & Charlie obtained some scrap solid surface material that will be distributed along with blades to cut it. Attendees will be asked to take the material and cut something with it – maybe a trivet or a set of coaster or whatever. The projects will be discussed at the May meeting. We will also discuss your Show & Tell projects as well as any woodworking issues you are having. See you in May! Bob Henry Andy LoConte Mike White NEW PRODUCT Bob Henry told attendees about Gork’s GoodFilla Water Based Wood & Grain Filler. Made in the USA, he states that he has used the product and loves it. It is available in 10 colors: white, rosewood, white oak, ebony, mahogany/ Brazilian cherry, red oak, tint base/natural, cherry/alder, maple/ash/pine, and walnut. The product can be colored to create custom colors and will accept any finish. Bob noted that there is a local distributor in Rochester and will have information about him along with product information cards at the April regular meeting. The website is www.goodfilla.com. WoodChips – April 2014 Page 5 Our March Meeting, continued … Bernd Krause Our second musical instrument of the evening was shown by B ernd K rause . This unique, 6 string, Thunder V dulcimer, is made from walnut that was hit by lightning in 1993. The wood dictated the shape of the dulcimer. A utilitarian tool case for Packard turning tools was shown by Greg Greg K ubinyak . Made from pine and paneling, the case makes Kubinyak it easy to store and even transport your tools. Greg made similar ones by other tool manufacturers. A twelve foot, 24 pound, red cedar, mahogany, rosewood, and cherry strip canoe was presented by Lynn M iller . Lynn used strips he obtained from Charles Trabold . As the photo shows, Charles was delighted to see the finished canoe. Lynne noted that he has used it after finishing it with spar varnish. The paddle is spruce. Our last Show & Tell item for the evening was a cherry side table designed and constructed by R on Frey . Ron used mortise and tenon construction for this table which will house a computer. He finished the table with 6 coats of wipe-on polyurethane. Great Show & Tell session! Thanks to everyone who brought in items! Ron Frey Lynn Miller with Charles Trabold MEETING SCHEDULE FOR 2014 April 3 – Getting to Know Sketch-Up with Jason & Justin August 7 – Super Show & Tell May 1 – Annual Auction & Swap Meet September 4 – Making a Mallet with Charlie & Rod June 5 – The Wonders of Spalting with Chad October 2 – Cutting Mortise & Tenon with Bruce & Tony July 10 – Annual Jig Night November 6 – 9th Annual Woodworker’s Challenge August 2 – Annual Family Picnic [new date!!] December 4 – Annual Holiday Party WoodChips – April 2014 Page 6 SHOP TIME: HANDY DRILL PRESS JIG W hether you need to drill some angled holes or are just updating your drill press with a new top, this jig is a good option to consider incorporating. Of course, you can build it to just clamp to your drill press metal table. What’s great about this jig is that the index bar can be easily adjusted to obtain many different angles. Mark the base on each side to identify where the bar is clamped to produce the angles you use most.  UPCOMING EVENT: STEVE SHERMAN RETURNS FOR FULL DAY DEMONSTRATION D o you remember the June 2nd SWWA meeting when Steve Sherman demonstrated turning small items with the Nano Tools? Well, he is returning on Saturday, April 26th as the guest of the Central New York Woodturners to give a full day demonstration at the 8 Acres Event Center in Baldwinsville. As you remember, Steve is the inventor of the famed Nano Tools, a hollowing and detailing system that allow you to create nano to small sized artwork and delicate detailing on vessels and finials. Steve is an accomplished turner who relocated out of New York City to the Hudson Valley to follow his passion, wood art. Steve’s work has been featured in Woodturning Design and in several galleries. Steve will focus his demonstration on the Nano Tool system but also discuss sharpening techniques and explore finishing techniques. Steve will also discuss his philosophy regarding ‘warming up’ before turning. In the workshop on Sunday, attendees will go through warm-up exercises before completing various projects like a goblet, hollow-form ornament, vessels, finials, earring, or pendants. The Saturday demonstration will begin at 9am with an expected end around 4pm. The cost for Saturday’s demo will be $35. Steve will also provide instruction for 8 people in a workshop on Sunday at a cost of $85 per person. Reservations can be made by emailing Mark Baumes, CNY Woodturners treasurer, at [email protected], or calling Mark at (315) 652-6187. Directions to the 8 Acres Event Center can be obtained by emailing [email protected] or by requesting when reserving a spot in either event.  WoodChips – April 2014 Page 7 SHOP TIME: TRICKS FOR PERFECT CROSSCUTS A clean crosscut is guaranteed with a great setup and using the tips and techniques displayed in the drawing at right. The first tip is to add an auxiliary fence to your miter gauge and a zero-clearance insert to your table saw. Both of these additions help provide solid support for clean, accurate cuts. Then add a simple L-shaped stop that can be clamped to your fence. With this stop, you can cut multiple pieces the same length.  UPCOMING EVENT: FOX CHAPEL PUBLISHING’S OPEN HOUSE F ox Chapel Publishing will be hosting an Open House and Woodworking Show on May 9th and 10th at the Rough and Tumble Engineers Historical Association in Lancaster County, PA.

I t was Friday, March 7th and for the 19th year I was hoping all day that nothing would go wrong. And, for the 19th year my wish came true! About 3:30pm the phone rang. John W ilson and Eric P intar had arrived at the Super 8 Motel in Pulaski safely. I grabbed my things and headed off to meet them. I decided to stay at the motel for the weekend to save the mileage and sleep time. In about a half hour, I met them and we headed over to Lakeshore Hardwoods, the location for the Shaker Box & Plane classes John and Eric would be teaching. Brian Leary again allowed us to use his workshop area to hold the classes. We got the truck unloaded; got things set up, and got the water heating up within a short time. By 5:30, the class attendees began to roll in and we got started about 6. As is customary, the beginner and advanced classes are run simultaneously. John started the evening with a little history of Shaker boxes and then showed everybody the first steps in the making of a box, a reminder for the advanced and a lesson for the beginners. He then set them free to begin working on their boxes. Everyone got to work and worked until about 10:15pm. We called it a night, planning to meet again Saturday morning about 8:30am to resume the class. After a short night, John, Eric and a few of the students who stayed at the hotel went to a local diner and had breakfast at about 7, and then headed to the shop for another day of making boxes. The class continued in the same way John always teaches, step-by-step to insure everyone understands how, with special help as needed for the advanced students who were making a variety of boxes rather than the standard set of 5. Lunch was sandwiches from a local deli based on each person’s request. Some people ate right thru and probably had a little sawdust along with the mustard on their roll. Now there is dedication. The beginner class had 9 while 6 were in the advanced class having attended a class previously. The group made some nice oval boxes, carriers and trays. John presented each attendee with certificates of achievement and folks headed home with their treasures. I want to thank David W heat for the donut holes and his wife, Randy, for the homemade cookies. Once the room was reset for the Sunday adventure of making hand planes, John, Eric, Bill Shea , Brian, and I headed to an adventure that Brian set up with M ary Lou of the Pulaski Historical Society. She gave us a history lesson on the Tollner Box Factory which was in existence in Pulaski from 1875 until about 1934. A few of us purchased the book on the history of the Tollners and their box industry. It was a great visit and I learned something. Thank you to Brian for setting this up with Mary Lou, who really loves her village. After the Historical Society, we had a nice dinner, sat and chatted for a bit, and headed to the Super 8 for another short night. It was the night to set your clock ahead for Daylight savings time so we lost an hour! After breakfast Sunday, we headed to Brian’s for the plane making class. John had 5 students, 3 who were there before and 2 new ones to discover the craft of wooden plane making, I was very happy to see everybody be attentive as John discussed the planes. Everyone got to work and the planes started to go together piece by piece, including working and tempering the tool steel. Everyone made a useful woodworking tool that should last a long time. Thanks today go to one of our fellow students, M itch W ilson , for offering to get pizza and soda for the group, Thanks Mitch. Brian ordered it and it was delivered about noon. After everybody completed their planes, received their diploma, and headed home, we got John's truck loaded and Brian’s tables and chairs put away. John and Eric headed back to Charlotte, Michigan and I headed home. Thank you goes out to Brad Davis who helped clean up and get the truck loaded. Before leaving about 5:15pm, John confirmed the dates for 2015 – the weekend of March 6th at Lakeshore Hardwoods. It will our 20th year so mark your calendar to plan on attending one or both of the classes! Brian wants to make an Adz and John said we shall see. Thanks for another great year!  WoodChips – April 2014 Page 9 COMMUNITY BULLETIN BOARD FOR SALE: Books: The Encyclopedia of Shaker Furniture by Rieman & Burks $80.
