SS SIG – Sept 20, 2018

The special interest group (SIG) focusing on Scroll Sawing is held at Rick Weisbeck’s shop on the third Thursday of the month. All members are welcome to attend these “scroll saw focused” get-togethers.

This SS SIG provided an exchange point for toy program activities: basketball game parts were exchanged with Ken, critters completed by Jerry were moved, and wood stock pickup for basketball bases was made. Then customary scroll-saw related talk was entertained. Rick showed his ’51 Studebaker cutout he was working for Grant. The original pattern was an actual puzzle.

Attendees included Ken, Rick, Harley, Rollie, Danny, Bob and Kathie.
