AIRBRUSH CLASS SIGN-UP

This class will feature airbrush artist Nathan Curry as our instructor. Nathan demonstrated for us at our September meeting, has been a professional airbrush artist for over 26 years, and his portfolio includes countless cars, trucks, motorcycles, and other vehicles including the Eagles’ Hotel California tour bus as well as helmets from everyone from bikers to babies, and even the occasional mailbox.
The class will be held Saturday, December 5th, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. Class fee is $125, including provided lunch. This class is first come first served, so be sure to sign up as soon as you can!

THANK YOU, BRIAN!
Thank you, Brian for the excellent hollow form demo. Your work is so inspiring. Best of luck on your new adventure in Wisconsin, eh!
2027 DUES are DUE
To keep up with expenses, club dues are increasing for first time in 15 years.
Individual Dues: $50
Family (Two adults and minor children): $70
Remember, WTSWMO membership, along with AAW membership, is required for turning, but these entitle members to all meetings, clubhouse access for OTT, special events, mentorship, and more!
Your help matters!
Join us in thanking our volunteers who provide set-up, take-down, and clean-up assistance at meetings and the clubhouse. If this is not you, please consider helping as many hands make light work. #GetInvolved
MEMBER MENTORSHIPS AVAILABLE
Your membership includes free one-on-one mentorship learning. Click the “Find a Mentor” link in the menu ribbon above.
Anchorseal Still Available!
Anchorseal $25/gal?
Sealing your logs and blanks with Anchorseal helps preserve your precious wood turning blanks. By slowing moisture loss and providing time for internal stresses to be released slowly, blank cracking and checking is minimized. Come get yours at the clubhouse!
OTT
Open Turning Tuesdays (OTT) is your opportunity to gather, turn, learn. While membership in WTSWMO and AAW is required to hands-on turn, you do NOT need to be a member to attend.
OTT is a good way to “test the water” for those who are interested in turning but wanting to dip their toes before taking the plunge. We hope to see you there!
