Like Ginny, I have been following this discussion. I am very much in
favor of doing it via zoom. One suggestion would be to have the club
purchase a zoom memerbership using one member. That way get the
benefit of the longer times and such and it would not have to come out
of a club member's pocket.
I have been doing some research on being able to do demos over the
internet. I came across a clob, lucid woodturners, who has been doing
this. They also have several tutorials set up and recommendations
cameras and such. In order to get access, you need to join their club.
Their website is located at https://www.lucidwoodturners.com/

Ginny, That sounds like a viable solution. If I’m understanding,
using club equip on site at club house, do a demo and record it to
DVD. Prob only need 2 people, demonstrator and camera person, which
should be Covid safe. Then following that, a zoom host person would
show the recorded video on the zoom meeting. Not sure if the Zoom free
version provides the resources.

I have been following this discussion.
You could use the camera and recording equipment that you have used
for the regular meeting demonstrations. Demonstrators could record
their presentation. You could then do a group zoom meeting and show
the video. You could still have the president run the meeting. Show a
portion of the presentation. Then member could show their work via
zoom. You could still do challenges if you want. And then you could
watch the rest of the video. With zoom you have the option of making
it a multi person screen or just one screen. The president or a
moderator could have control of video feed and microphone. The club
would have to have an account with zoom or other software so you could
have a larger group. It really isn’t that difficult to set up, and
you already have the recording/filming set up at the center.

Zoom is the easiest to use. You just click on the link provided when
the meeting is set up. You can choose to download Zoom to your device
or just join from your browser.
Teams is easy , too, but I am reasonably sure a Microsoft account is
required.
I suggest Zoom and I urge whoever creates the meeting to make the
link readily available to all.
My two cents, anyways.

Thanks James, I just want to have a meeting. You are the President,
your call and the board's on which platform and when. I do plan to
attend the AAW one the afternoon of the 21st featuring John Jordan. I
personally do not deer hunt so the 21st works for me.
My two cents worth: I have never tried Microsoft Teams, never even
heard of it till now. I can get Zoom to work, mostly. I tried a remote
medical appointment with my Dr. last month on Skype Business, I could
not make it work at all. An idea, maybe have a practice run.
So what I envision is you determining the best platform then doing
one or maybe two practice sessions where members can join the meeting
for a few minutes to get the kinks worked out then leave, and others
can use it too. And if you are moderating, have your phone number
available so you can act as the help desk for those who are finding it
too tricky during the practice session. That way, a better chance of
success with the actual virtual meeting for us old goats who are not
tech savvy.
Anyway, I am ready to rock and roll! Thanks for your leadership, John

I am open to either Zoom or Microsoft Teams, It is similar to Zoom.
Free version can host a 45 min meeting and can work with either a
PC/laptop with cam or a mobile device. The 21st of this month would be
when our traditional meeting would take place. An electronic in its
place would work.

Greetings to all.
Thanks to Lavonne, Lyle and everyone else who has responded earlier I
think we have a lot of support for a Zoom meeting. No one is opposed
to the idea.
So, board members, what do you think? I am ready and willing to take
the step. This Saturday? The Saturday after is WI deer season, And AAW
will be doing a John Jordan on line event that day too, which I don't
plan to miss. Then Thanksgiving weekend? Do we wait until December? An
evening meeting some weeknight? I think if we plan for an hour or so,
with a definite agenda. Then after we get that experience under our
belts, go on to a longer format like Lyle Solem said. Instant gallery,
discussions. Maybe a lecture if not a demo. We will need a member to
set up and moderate the meeting. And a Zoom event can be attended with
a smart phone, a tablet, a laptop or a desktop computer with a
camera/microphone. (I bought my camera and microphone from Target
on-line. Best Buy, Amazon, Walmart and e Bay are among the many places
one can be had for about $30.00 It sits on top of my monitor.)
And other CRW members, please chime in, let us know your thoughts.
Think about the movie about a baseball park some guy built in his
field in Iowa, "If you build it, they will come..." And by George,
they did.

Hello Members,
Well, some promising responses from members. Nobody said to just
forget about the club. And Jim Cox wants to send dues! Can't beat that
with a stick.
Jim Cox, I would say if you are not a paid member for 2020 and want
to renew, get in touch with Jay Johnson and send a check per his
reply. Good to hear from you.
Jay, I too think that carrying over 2020 dues to 2021 is a good move.
James Bloomer, good news you are hearing from the City about our
space.
Jack, your point is very well taken, sounds like from James' comment
that our equipment is safe. We have a ton of valuable stuff that needs
to be accounted for.
Bob Raasch, thanks much for your thoughts. I would be willing to do
sort of an "open library, open tool" event at the Center now and
again. I am pretty certain that could be done in a way that meets CDC
guidelines. My take would be to not have coffee available (Fine to
BYOC), masks mandatory, a bottle of sanitizer available in plain sight
and no one hang around for long so our faithful librarians will not be
subjected to prolonged exposure, distancing practiced to the extent
possible. We might want to stand outside distanced and chat too. I
would make my 95 mile round trip now and then for that.
Virginia, as our librarian and practicing Nurse Practioner, is this a
viable option for us? Would you add something
Back to Bob's comments, he also suggested a Zoom meeting and for us
to have a pretty defined agenda that is followed so as to maintain
interest. Much harder for most of us to focus on a screen where
someone is speaking as opposed to our usual meeting style. Board
members, an idea: Maybe do a business meeting to submit a formal
motion to carry over dues for paid up members to 2021. Also do an
election of officers, even it it is to carry over the current board to
next year. Perhaps we should try to stay fairly close to the by-laws
in these times even if 100% compliance is not practical nor safe. Such
a Zoom business meeting should also include an instant gallery. We
would need someone with enough Zoom awareness to run or moderate the
meeting. Volunteers?
Lastly let's figure out a Zoom Demo project to do. Maybe start with
something pretty simple like turning a pen. Or a bowl. Or some other
spindle project. How to do that safely you ask. Well, If I were to
journey to Bob's shop to broadcast him making a project for example,
that would expose both of us and wearing a mask makes speaking clearly
difficult. But many of us have a spouse or family member with whom we
live so maybe that person could be persuaded to do the camera work.
Any volunteers. (My little secret, if this happens, you get to pick
the topic if you volunteer.)
OK, I have exhausted my wellspring of ideas for the moment so will
sign off. But, please add your thoughts, ideas and when some thoughts
are firmed up, I think the board will take the next step to make
something happen. Until then, peace and health,
John

Hi! Jim and John, I would recommend that we just renew all members
without new dues for 2021, we have 4700 $ in the Bank and this , would
hopefully hold our membership. Also, if we would happen to need more
money to get us throught, 2021, we could just do a $15 fee ,to each
member to get us into 2022! I think we need a 1 hr zoom meeting each
month bye 3 members to conduct any business and show off some good
works! This would have to be done at someones house with WiF ?? J.

Good Saturday morning members,
I want to suggest we have some sort of an on-line gathering. It would
be up to the board what we do, but several possibilities exist. The
best possibility would seem to me to be Zoom. A moderator would
control the meeting, giving members a chance to speak and keeping the
discussion going as would the president in a face to face meeting.
James, if you are comfortable with managing a Zoom meeting you would
be a natural as president.
Club dues are due and a decision needs to be made: do we just renew
everyone without paying dues since we did not spend 2020 dues for
anything other than basic club functions or what? Also we should make
a decision about club officers. Just reappoint the existing board or
what?
One would be a simple meeting via Zoom, but there might be a boredom
factor with that. Perhaps a short business meeting would be tolerable
and useful. We could incorporate an instant gallery in this too. This
would be a matter of holding the piece we are presenting in the
instant gallery up to the camera on the computer, phone or tablet you
are using while discussing your design, finish and so on.
Another would be to do some kind of a demo in a Zoom meeting. This
might involve one of us setting up a camera, perhaps on a phone and
placing it in view of the workpiece so it would transmit the actual
turning and the your narrative. The person running the Zoom meeting
would control the image being transmitted and handle questions. Or we
could have another person present at the lathe handling the camera
while the turner turns. That might be best.
So if you have read this far (I hope you have) you will notice I have
not made any decisions or directives. That is way above my pay grade,
to quote a former president. This is the time for members to speak up
with feedback, ideas what you want as a club member and how to keep
the club going during these trying times. Please think about this and
circulate your thoughts as replies.
This will give direction to the board about the future of the club. I
do not want to see it fade into nothingness so I hoped we can do some
kind of on-line meeting.
John
