My first AAW meeting!

[Dewey Torres]

Thanks the Creeker Al Wasser for the invite I was able to drive to Pueblo tonight and attended my first AAW meeting.

WOW

Now I know why all of you recommended the Noobs go there to learn.

As luck would have it, the demo was all about inlaid turnings!!!! Sweet! What else could I ask for?

I introduced myself and bought some pics of my work which seemed well received.

Then I won one of the wood raffles! YES! Luckiest turner on the planet=Dewey Torres)
Box elder, Spalted maple, and some Corian I can use for inlay!

[alex carey]

Wow that box elder looks really nice. Lots of pink in there, great stuff.

[Ron Crosby]

You mean Manitoba Maple.
Nice stuff, congrats on your win.
