Meetings & wood days
Second Saturday of most months, plus field days when the wood shows up.
Both club pole lathes will be set up all morning, plus the shave horses for roughing out. We’re turning chair legs and rolling pins — bring a green billet if you have one, or use club stock (we still have box elder from the May wood day).
New this month: Ray is demonstrating how to grind and hone a roughing gouge. Bring your dull tools.
Our most beginner-friendly meeting of the year. We’ll split fresh birch blanks, lay out a spoon with a pencil, and take it from axe to knife to hook knife. Club sloyd knives available to borrow; blanks provided.
If you’ve been meaning to bring a friend, this is the one.
A landowner up Big Cottonwood has a storm-felled cherry with our name on it. We’ll buck it, split it into billets with froes and wedges, and divide the haul among everyone who shows up to swing a maul.
Bring gloves, water, and a truck if you have one. Carpool leaves the pavilion at 8:00 sharp.
