December Meeting – Back and in person. Let's social distance together. Sarah and Mark will walk you through their first experience making a Gisi style pen blank. You don't need to be a professional or expert to do one of the demos. We are always looking for the experience – what you learned, what did you try, how would you do it differently.

Let's make this one a party. Bring some cookies if you like (not required). Let's just have fun. And don't forget the Christmas challenge – see below.

October Meeting – And thanks to John Underhill for just the opposite – a true professional demonstration. John took us through his casting method and system. This was truly a shouldn't have missed. Not only did John give his take on casting but some of his secrets. Thanks – John.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN GETTING THE EMAIL INVITES YOU WILL BE CONTINUING TO GET THE EMAILS.

December 18, 2021
All meetings are from 10 am - 1 pm.

December (2021) Christmas Challenge:
A total of $25 (kit and blank). Make the best pen you can, and the winner gets the glory (and the prizes). I encourage to use some technique you either learned or were inspired to try. We will vote as a group. This year's winner was a nice watch parts pen.

Tips and Tricks:
Please bring your tips and tricks for all of us to share and learn. Last month we had a few but always looking for more. Even if small – it might be something someone else is struggling with.

Show and Tell:
Please bring any pens you either loved making and just want to show off / are having trouble with a techniques and want help / want feedback on / or just want to put on a table. This will be an open forum to help each other. You will find two things out – one helping others is fun and two you know more than you think you do and others will benefit.

Looking for demonstrators and / or topics. If you have any interest in doing a demo email me. Also if you have suggestions for a demo you would like to see email me back.

Thanks,
Mark
