Saturday Sessions with Colin

Saturday Morning Direction

At the last general meeting it was suggested during the discussion that the session could be a forum for providing members with an introduction to new ideas, techniques or even machinery / jig usage.

Colin Dobson, the Saturday session leader, will be on holiday until early July; however, on return he will organise a program which will be promoted in the newsletter & on the web site. Some ideas in no specific order are:

  • Using the scroll saw for intarsia or making toy furniture.
  • Understanding what jigs are available in the workshop.
  • Plans for a toolbox will be available for new members to become familiar with the club’s machinery.
  • Demonstration of how to turn an emerging bowl.
  • Finger joints and / or biscuits for laminating timber.

Members can put forward what they would like to learn and if necessary, the session leader will find someone to meet the request.
