wombatie Posted March 1, 2020 Report Posted March 1, 2020 Terry and I spent a marvelous 2.5 - 3 hours along with 18 other people with Kathy Wise yesterday. The first half was a slide show of her work starting with the clay animals she made at school. The second half of the morning she cut and shaped a Platypus (an Australian animal) From picking the wood to gluing it together, very informative. We thoroughly enjoyed it and so did. It also helped a lot. Marg GrampaJim, OCtoolguy, Dave Monk and 4 others 6 1 Quote

Paul, over the years, since I've been interested in woodworking, woodcarving, and scrolling, I've notice that all the schools and shows seem to be East of the Mississippi. Not sure why. Nothing ever on the Western side. Quote

If you look at even the map of members on here, the east of the Miss. out number the scrollers here on the West 10 to 1, maybe more and it is almost the same for all wood working. Been that way as long as I can remember. Edited March 1, 2020 by Scrappile OCtoolguy 1 Quote

She came to Australia and did talks and demonstrations, it was all free but she sold books and raffle tickets for one of three Australian animal intarsia's that she had made. One of the intarsia's was a Koala and all the money for that raffle went to the Koala Rescue center. Marg OCtoolguy and Jim McDonald 2 Quote
