They advertised it well and we had many people show up for the opening night and the month that everything was displayed. I would recommend on talking to them and getting on the list, It might take a good year or more to have the display/show, if anything try to have the show in the late fall to winter time, you will have more people attend rather then the Summer months, but it is up to them also. They will take a percentage of sales and as I remember right it was a big percentage, but they have to pay to keep the lights on also, so mark up your pieces to cover yourself.

I learned things I did not previously appreciate. I arrived at Saturday's club turning demo a just a bit before 9 am. First thing I noticed was no AV setup, once again! My belief is that the club shows disrespect to any demonstrator kind enough to volunteer their time, prepare for and share their skill with the attendees by not providing the infrastructure, which the club currently has so the members can enjoy the nuances of the presentation and maximize the learning taking place. By providing the AV support/equipment we already have, all attendees can visualize all that's taking place at the lathe: seeing the lathe's drive and tail stock end, view from directly over the lathe, and clearly hearing the voice of the demonstrator. At this past Saturday's demo, this was clearly not the case. As the demo began, I quickly became aware of several safety concerns during the demonstration of turning the timber, a smallish bowl. In my absent mindedness, I chose not to take pictures, which would have helped defend this writing. However, I feel compelled to express my concern and am willing to take the fall-out from mentioning. After consultation with others (thank you to those contributors), several positive steps are listed and suggested to leadership to improve the attendee's experience. There are a few web links embedded in this email, click on or copy the link and paste into your browser to view if desired, value added, same price. We all know or should know, especially if you are an AAW member, take classes, be mentored from a respected turner, or read the UK journal, Woodturning that woodturning is a dangerous endeavor. In every issue of the AAW journal, it clearly states, "an accident at the lathe can happen with blinding suddenness, respiratory and other problems can build over years. Take appropriate precautions when you turn. Safety guidelines are published online at tiny.cc/turnsafe. Following these guidelines will help you continue to enjoy woodturning" Similar statements are found in the UK journal. Many IRD's and quality YouTube turning videos respond in similar fashion, for example, see Alan Scranton's, www.aswoodturns.com . What are my observations? #1. The featured demonstrator, while obviously skilled at woodturning chose not to wear a face mask, however, was wearing safety glasses and a dust mask throughout the complete demo. As all of us, especially seasoned turners who turn non-spindle-oriented timber, i.e. end grain, know from experience that the piece may come off the lathe, or chunks of wood can fly off the lathe at lightning speed, not necessarily with forewarning. It's happened to me, more than once. Even with turning a piece between centers, the piece can come off the lathe. How do we know this? #2. The Saturdays' club demo organizer chose NOT to coordinate the set-up of the club's existing AV system. Doing so however, would allow the audience to not feel so compelled to be up close to the action. Several people were in the direct "line of fire" or "red zone" and sitting close to the action. Sitting some moderate distance from the lathe; having multiple camera feeds with the club's display screens or using the club's existing analog projector would allow for a much richer audience experience, in a safer manner. The veteran club members reading will remember this AV support was a given at all club demos at the Community Center. The only thing that has changed is the place (building) that demonstrations takes place. #3. As in statement #2, 2 people were in the direct "line of fire" and very close to the action should the entire piece or chunks of the piece come off of the material being turned. They were not wearing PPE, nor should have been. #4. The club has chosen not to install the club's "plexiglass lathe shields". These shields are free standing or attach directly to the lathe stands to protect the viewing audience should an accident occur. We have these devices! Please use em! #5. There may have been, but I did not look for or see the club's "first aid kit". The first aid kit should be in place for every turning event, whether at the club site or off-site demos. I don't feel like I must define what an accident is or the purpose of a first aid kit. I'm assuming none of us is too cavalier not to feel to have a first aid kit present in the club's demo space or their home shops. #6. A club member in the viewing audience mentioned during the demo, of their concern about people sitting close to spinning wood, and in the line of fire. The demonstrator, kind of ignored the concern, mentioned that the piece would not come of the lathe due to how it was captured between centers, and did not suggest mitigation safety measures for the audience such as moving the front row back couple feet or clear the path in the "direct line of fire", nor personally wear a full-face mask (the normal and recommended safety device when turning bowls and other items) to protect himself. For those reading this who may not know, many people have lost eyes, sustained severe facial damage and even death from timber coming off the lathe or a piece flying off the timber being turned. To name a few, Joan Kelly, an experienced turner, died May 4, 2011, 2 weeks after a lathe accident, Jimmy Jeanfeau, a priest and hobby turner, died more recently on November 29, 2022, an apparent instant death following a lathe accident, and Lyn Yamaguchi, Yamaguchi_SafetyMatters.pdf (lynneyamaguchi.com) an accomplished professional turner suffered life altering injuries following a serious lathe accident on Sept 12, 2012. There are many other examples. Some may say, well the club has liability insurance, for events at various club venues, so what's the big deal? Well folks, safety is a BIG DEAL!! #7. Sanding the bowl at Saturday's meeting was done without sanding dust mitigation. In the past, at least at the Ona Community Center (maybe the current guidelines have changed); sanding was taboo as the dust could not be controlled and we understand some woods are an allergen to select people i.e., walnut, cedar to mention a couple. It is good to share the sanding technic, reasons for different grits, discuss types of sanding materials, etc. As these shows are demonstrations, there is no need to make a finished product ready for sale or give away. Exceptions may be helpful for small finial type work or small diameter spindle work as little dust is generated. If sanding is required on a larger item, a type of "sanding butter" which reduces or eliminates generated dust, would be a safer method. Please consider these positive suggestions to leadership and all of us going forward. A setup checklist could be developed and adhered to, at each and every demo meeting when actual turning of timber/material is used. If the demo is a canned, slide show presentation or IRD, the following list can be disregarded. Checklist parameters follow. Consider the following as a first draft! 1. When using the Commons room at Luther or other facility's room space, place chairs so that a wedge-shaped open, empty, space (safety aisle) equal to the width of and starting at the lathe and extending out to the end of the seating. This will leave no one, other than the turner in the direct line of fire. Request that no members place chairs in that "safety aisle". 2. Provide a Clean Face Mask/shield for the demonstrator turner, in case they forget to bring their own. To emphasize that point, the meeting convener should make a club announcement that ALL demonstrators are asked to wear a full-face shield. In the case of small spindle type work such as pens, only safety glasses could be used. 3. Place the club's first aid kit in an easily accessible location known to all members. The first aid kit should be present at all club turning events, and all off-site turning activities. 4. Place the club's plexiglass shields, which were made to be free standing or attached to lathe stands at each lathe used for demonstrations, even round-robin activities. The stands should accompany the lathes, whether used on-site, or off-site. These stands are designed protect the viewing public. Ensure the plexiglass is Clean so people can readily see the presenter and lathe project. These plexiglass screens should be placed when AV system is used or not used, which appears to be the new normal. 5. Set the IG (instant gallery) table to the side and in front of the demo room. This will make it easier for the audience to see, reduce the steps the IG person/critique/presenter takes for showing the pieces to the audience, optimize video capture if that is desired and will greatly reduce members from having side conversations about the pieces while the demo is ongoing. 6. The meeting or demo convener makes an announcement just before each demo that, other than the usual comments about the demo and about pieces, being passed around the audience, that other conversations, no matter how brief should take place outside of the demo area. In the case of Luther's commons room, it has a very convenient vestibule by the entrance and hallway just around the corner that should be used for side conversations. These side conversations held in the demo room are extremely distracting, not only to the audience, but for the demonstrator. Not to mention, they are rude! Some of us wear hearing aids or are hard of hearing, so these extraneous conversations are very disruptive to the learning process. Please remember the main reason we attend the demo meetings. 7. Although the demonstrator has the responsibility to make the demo safe, our club, has the responsibility to make sure our equipment and physical setup are created with safety in mind. In closing, I am writing this to plead with you, the membership, that for the good of the club, safety for all is of paramount importance. Anyone suggesting that "that (safety) will be addressed in the future" as I've heard, is seriously and foolishly missing the point. As a turning club, our CRW mission statement states "To promote, to educate, and to inspire ourselves and others in the fine art of turned wood." The "educate" is implied to mean the how's, what's, and techniques of turning in a safe manner using promoted and accepted safety measures using PPE and protecting the viewing audience as practical. By not adhering to these principles, we are in effect, "poo pooing" the principal standards of turning safety. Is the picture of unsafe behaviors and deficient turning space setups what we want to pass on to learners, seasoned turners, children learning woodturning, or new turners we are trying to introduce to the fun craft and hobby of wood turning?

I will resend. Maybe the drought is affecting those electrons, moving slower than usual, gobbled by PM. The following is geeky: read at you own risk. 1. The currently used club?s CRW talk software is Mailman software is 2.1.38, the most current is 3.3.8, written in the Python language, which should be stable. I do not know the effect of the current Mailman version on handling the current email traffic. I believe the computer running the OS maybe a type of Unix, Linux or similar and able to be used on a variety of computers. If so, the OS is free and open source, and certainly out of my wheelhouse. Mailman is free according to the Mailman web site. Does not mean Mailman it not a good product, it?s just free and requires a knowledgeable webmaster such as Ken to manage. We all know the CRW club membership has shrunk over the years, and email traffic is minimal. Am hoping Ken will review and possibly update, as needed. There are mail server products available that run on Windows computers, but these are not free! 2. Many years ago, in a different life, I ran a private type (kinda like the CRW server) mail server, had 300-1000 members fluctuated over the years, 5-20 +emails per day, usually requested by subscribers to receive only 1 email per day, the setting called Digest, in essence, divvy-up into separate topics as desired so people did not get email pollution on their computers. Private lists, minimize hacking, a good thing. Only subscribers can post or read the CRW emessages. When someone joins the CRW club, Ken subscribes the new members, a transparent process for members. The first subscriber email list product my college used to run a mail server called Radsci-L was Listserv, followed by MajorDomo, and the final product used was possibly Mailman, a free software, run on a Linux computer system via the college IT dept. My role was list owner and manager, not the techy guy, but certainly able to handle all assorted situations, including email bounces, rejected email, subscribing unsubscribing, members, sparking discussion as needed, fielding questions, and helping subscriber people, etc. It was a fun labor of love project for a professional group I was part of for bout 9 ? years. I do know, running a mail server can be challenging; as Ken knows, and glitches indeed can happen and sometimes do. I also used Yahoo groups for a small professional group, which worked well. I do not know if Yahoo groups is still available or costs. It was free in the mid 2000?s 3. Someone suggested in the last couple of days, for members to use an email package other than AOL when interacting with CRW talk. We know AOL is not the AOL we may remember from the mid 1990?s, however, AOL mail is still out there, and has many users, and continues to be viable. I don?t believe the CRW police should be involved in recommending email software to use. When changing email or adopting new email, all kinds of issues complicate communication with people. For me personally, I?ve had to use by Gmail for many email services, only because my Android phone hates charter email, making it IMPOSSIBLE to send charter email. The CRW-talk server does not accept email coming from my gmail phone?s account, as I?m only subscribed via my charter email. Please, fix or update the CRW software as needed, Do not suggest using a new email address for this sole purpose. 4. I do suspect, however, paying for an email list management service would be a consideration going forward, set up so more than one club member person could help manage. Some of these have reasonable costs for such a small club and minimal traffic such as CRW has. Funded by dues, recall the kitty currently has bout $3,000 I believe.

This is being resent on the good recommendation by John Griffiths. -raasch Dear fellow club members, First of all, a thank you to our featured demonstrator for stepping up to share his skill and concepts related to turning a footless bowl. I learned things I did not previously appreciate. I arrived at Saturday's club turning demo a just a bit before 9 am. First thing I noticed was no AV setup, once again! My belief is that the club shows disrespect to any demonstrator kind enough to volunteer their time, prepare for and share their skill with the attendees by not providing the infrastructure, which the club currently has so the members can enjoy the nuances of the presentation and maximize the learning taking place. By providing the AV support/equipment we already have, all attendees can visualize all that's taking place at the lathe: seeing the lathe's drive and tail stock end, view from directly over the lathe, and clearly hearing the voice of the demonstrator. At this past Saturday's demo, this was clearly not the case. As the demo began, I quickly became aware of several safety concerns during the demonstration of turning the timber, a smallish bowl. In my absent mindedness, I chose not to take pictures, which would have helped defend this writing. However, I feel compelled to express my concern and am willing to take the fall-out from mentioning. After consultation with others (thank you to those contributors), several positive steps are listed and suggested to leadership to improve the attendee's experience. There are a few web links embedded in this email, click on or copy the link and paste into your browser to view if desired, value added, same price. We all know or should know, especially if you are an AAW member, take classes, be mentored from a respected turner, or read the UK journal, Woodturning that woodturning is a dangerous endeavor. In every issue of the AAW journal, it clearly states, "an accident at the lathe can happen with blinding suddenness, respiratory and other problems can build over years. Take appropriate precautions when you turn. Safety guidelines are published online at tiny.cc/turnsafe. Following these guidelines will help you continue to enjoy woodturning" Similar statements are found in the UK journal. Many IRD's and quality YouTube turning videos respond in similar fashion, for example, see Alan Scranton's, www.aswoodturns.com . What are my observations? #1. The featured demonstrator, while obviously skilled at woodturning chose not to wear a face mask, however, was wearing safety glasses and a dust mask throughout the complete demo. As all of us, especially seasoned turners who turn non-spindle-oriented timber, i.e. end grain, know from experience that the piece may come off the lathe, or chunks of wood can fly off the lathe at lightning speed, not necessarily with forewarning. It's happened to me, more than once. Even with turning a piece between centers, the piece can come off the lathe. How do we know this? #2. The Saturdays' club demo organizer chose NOT to coordinate the set-up of the club's existing AV system. Doing so however, would allow the audience to not feel so compelled to be up close to the action. Several people were in the direct "line of fire" or "red zone" and sitting close to the action. Sitting some moderate distance from the lathe; having multiple camera feeds with the club's display screens or using the club's existing analog projector would allow for a much richer audience experience, in a safer manner. The veteran club members reading will remember this AV support was a given at all club demos at the Community Center. The only thing that has changed is the place (building) that demonstrations takes place. #3. As in statement #2, 2 people were in the direct "line of fire" and very close to the action should the entire piece or chunks of the piece come off of the material being turned. They were not wearing PPE, nor should have been. #4. The club has chosen not to install the club's "plexiglass lathe shields". These shields are free standing or attach directly to the lathe stands to protect the viewing audience should an accident occur. We have these devices! Please use em! #5. There may have been, but I did not look for or see the club's "first aid kit". The first aid kit should be in place for every turning event, whether at the club site or off-site demos. I don't feel like I must define what an accident is or the purpose of a first aid kit. I'm assuming none of us is too cavalier not to feel to have a first aid kit present in the club's demo space or their home shops. #6. A club member in the viewing audience mentioned during the demo, of their concern about people sitting close to spinning wood, and in the line of fire. The demonstrator, kind of ignored the concern, mentioned that the piece would not come of the lathe due to how it was captured between centers, and did not suggest mitigation safety measures for the audience such as moving the front row back couple feet or clear the path in the "direct line of fire", nor personally wear a full-face mask (the normal and recommended safety device when turning bowls and other items) to protect himself. For those reading this who may not know, many people have lost eyes, sustained severe facial damage and even death from timber coming off the lathe or a piece flying off the timber being turned. To name a few, Joan Kelly, an experienced turner, died May 4, 2011, 2 weeks after a lathe accident, Jimmy Jeanfeau, a priest and hobby turner, died more recently on November 29, 2022, an apparent instant death following a lathe accident, and Lyn Yamaguchi, Yamaguchi_SafetyMatters.pdf (lynneyamaguchi.com) an accomplished professional turner suffered life altering injuries following a serious lathe accident on Sept 12, 2012. There are many other examples. Some may say, well the club has liability insurance, for events at various club venues, so what's the big deal? Well folks, safety is a BIG DEAL!! #7. Sanding the bowl at Saturday's meeting was done without sanding dust mitigation. In the past, at least at the Ona Community Center (maybe the current guidelines have changed); sanding was taboo as the dust could not be controlled and we understand some woods are an allergen to select people i.e., walnut, cedar to mention a couple. It is good to share the sanding technic, reasons for different grits, discuss types of sanding materials, etc. As these shows are demonstrations, there is no need to make a finished product ready for sale or give away. Exceptions may be helpful for small finial type work or small diameter spindle work as little dust is generated. If sanding is required on a larger item, a type of "sanding butter" which reduces or eliminates generated dust, would be a safer method. Please consider these positive suggestions to leadership and all of us going forward. A setup checklist could be developed and adhered to, at each and every demo meeting when actual turning of timber/material is used. If the demo is a canned, slide show presentation or IRD, the following list can be disregarded. Checklist parameters follow. Consider the following as a first draft! 1. When using the Commons room at Luther or other facility's room space, place chairs so that a wedge-shaped open, empty, space (safety aisle) equal to the width of and starting at the lathe and extending out to the end of the seating. This will leave no one, other than the turner in the direct line of fire. Request that no members place chairs in that "safety aisle". 2. Provide a Clean Face Mask/shield for the demonstrator turner, in case they forget to bring their own. To emphasize that point, the meeting convener should make a club announcement that ALL demonstrators are asked to wear a full-face shield. In the case of small spindle type work such as pens, only safety glasses could be used. 3. Place the club's first aid kit in an easily accessible location known to all members. The first aid kit should be present at all club turning events, and all off-site turning activities. 4. Place the club's plexiglass shields, which were made to be free standing or attached to lathe stands at each lathe used for demonstrations, even round-robin activities. The stands should accompany the lathes, whether used on-site, or off-site. These stands are designed protect the viewing public. Ensure the plexiglass is Clean so people can readily see the presenter and lathe project. These plexiglass screens should be placed when AV system is used or not used, which appears to be the new normal. 5. Set the IG (instant gallery) table to the side and in front of the demo room. This will make it easier for the audience to see, reduce the steps the IG person/critique/presenter takes for showing the pieces to the audience, optimize video capture if that is desired and will greatly reduce members from having side conversations about the pieces while the demo is ongoing. 6. The meeting or demo convener makes an announcement just before each demo that, other than the usual comments about the demo and about pieces, being passed around the audience, that other conversations, no matter how brief should take place outside of the demo area. In the case of Luther's commons room, it has a very convenient vestibule by the entrance and hallway just around the corner that should be used for side conversations. These side conversations held in the demo room are extremely distracting, not only to the audience, but for the demonstrator. Not to mention, they are rude! Some of us wear hearing aids or are hard of hearing, so these extraneous conversations are very disruptive to the learning process. Please remember the main reason we attend the demo meetings. 7. Although the demonstrator has the responsibility to make the demo safe, our club, has the responsibility to make sure our equipment and physical setup are created with safety in mind. In closing, I am writing this to plead with you, the membership, that for the good of the club, safety for all is of paramount importance. Anyone suggesting that "that (safety) will be addressed in the future" as I've heard, is seriously and foolishly missing the point. As a turning club, our CRW mission statement states "To promote, to educate, and to inspire ourselves and others in the fine art of turned wood." The "educate" is implied to mean the how's, what's, and techniques of turning in a safe manner using promoted and accepted safety measures using PPE and protecting the viewing audience as practical. By not adhering to these principles, we are in effect, "poo pooing" the principal standards of turning safety. Is the picture of unsafe behaviors and deficient turning space setups what we want to pass on to learners, seasoned turners, children learning woodturning, or new turners we are trying to introduce to the fun craft and hobby of wood turning? Thank you for reading. Sincerely, Bob Raasch -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

As always, there is more than meets the eye. The explanation is very helpful. Maybe Hostgator chooses not to update for monetary reasons, beyond our control ta be sure. I no nada bout Unix, Linux or other. I started with MS DOS 1.0? on a PC, very early eighties. Don?t even know how to turn a Apple or Mac system on- I just eat em. Sometimes, the command prompt systems made more sense. Does RedHat have a GUI interface? I know most medical imaging equipment run on Unix, lower overhead much faster at processing those electrons I suspect. Now that I?m forced to use gmail on my phone, as the shitty charter interface on my phone usually craps out, I?m often using both charter(PC) and gmail (phone)for email purposes, in my view, a waste of time?When I retire, I?ll get off the bandwagon and stick to bagpiping ( I like that irritating sound to some or most- Red Hot Chilli Pipers much more fun than rap, ska and the like) and turning stuff. Anyway, I?ll take a peek at the Mailman interface, not making any changes. That?s probably got lots of geeky stuff, ma mostly gone brain wouldn?t understand anyway. That would be suicide! I may have some questions offline?ifn I see something that really sticks out, don?t hold your breath on me finding any. There may be a member in the club that?s getting into Unix or Linux and would love to help ya. That 1 will read this?.me thinks. When I got in trouble, long time ago with mailserver stuff, 1995ish, the IT people pulled me from the brink?.can you imagine 1000 subscribers screamin at me?

Thanks for chiming in. -raasch From: crw-talk > On Behalf Of raaschb at charter.net Sent: Saturday, June 24, 2023 6:08 PM To: CRW-Talk at crwoodturner.com Subject: [crw-talk] Blast from da past- from earlier days. Taking the liberty, at great risk to send an attachment of the One Good Turn from deep in the recesses. Fond memories, remembering our wonderful forebearers, no longer with us, Brother Finbar, Eddie, Jimmy Frank, Greg Haugan, and Ansel Heram. Tool day pics, ya'll have aged so well! A mystery quest - find Bob R's grinder, ifn you find it, a reward will be given- its there fer sure!
