The in-person meeting has been cancelled, and a Zoom invite will be sent to members.

Our February meeting will feature Jim Bucknell talking about Wood Weaving and Jerry Couchman taking about Decorative Inlay Techniques.

Jim has made about 20 cutting boards and about 30 coasters using the wood weaving technique. Jim will illustrate the process he uses and share some of the do’s and don’ts he has discovered along the way.

Jerry will describe what he learned from a class taught by longtime Fine Woodworking contributor Garrett Hack. He took Garrett’s class at the Port Townsend School of Woodworking. Along with learning how to build and use a scratch stock, it involved techniques for creating decorative inlay for furniture and other projects. Jerry will describe the process for inlaying framed panels with borders, string inlay and fans. Pictured here are examples of some of Garrett’s inlay techniques.
