[crw-talk] Demo at Luther High School

[James Bloomer]

Good afternoon, The demo is right around the corner. Address is 1501 Wilson
St in Onalaska. We will be loading through the roll away door near the back
of the school near the recycling dumpsters. Setup begins at about 1200 with
the demo commencing at 1300(1 pm) We will be just demonstrating various
types of turning. No hands on for the students. For my demonstrators, be
sure to check tools and have different types of wood. Duane is bringing
his class lathes and we are going to be in the wood shop itself.
There will be a short intro and safety briefing. I anticipate that small
groups will be observing each of us as we turn. So they will have safety
glasses at minimum and be no closer than 5 feet to the lathe,or,  if the
demonstrator wants a bigger cushion, they can back them up further. Plan on
an hour and a half of turning tops. Clean up and help Duane load back up.
Hopefully if their is enough interest we will schedule a hands on demo for
the advanced students. I plan to mention the club and hopefully we can
attract a few to the meetings.

Thank you once again in everyone's assistance in this.

In Service
