Report on our meeting 03-07-2024 organized by Barry Cumming.

Our meeting on Wednesday 3rd July 2024 was organized by Barry Cumming, Barry wanted to use this meeting to experiment with square or odd shaped bowls as he had not done any of these since he started woodturning. He then organized for 4 more turners to man all our lathes to demonstrate the methods used to make square or odd shaped bowls.
