Helpful Hint

Sometimes wood plugs are difficult to get flush with your finished surface. It can also be difficult to complete the task without scaring the wood around the plug when using a chisel or saw.
- Try using a SHARP straight router bit. Make it flush with the base of the router. It cuts them quickly and cleanly.

Topics

Events for 2021
- Regular events on pause til 2nd week of Jan, '22

Safety Note

On machines: Make sure you have adequate room for both the in-feed and out-feed of your material.
- If someone or something is in your way, ask that if be moved.
- FYI: on the table saw in Lenox, it is just over 8 feet from the back of the blade to the vice at the far end of the table. Someone thought that one out.

Rule and Regulation of the Week

We are a DOacrocy. With winter raising its head, please help keep the sidewalks clear for our neighbors at the Lenox facility. There is a snow blower and shovels by the middle door in the alley.
