Looking For WoodTurning Clubs Close To My Area

[William Fourness]

Looking for a couple woodturning clubs within 150 to 200 miles of Port Allegany Pennsylvania, that we might be able to work out some kind of deal to visit once a month and roll in with a pick load of burls, spalt, crotch and figured wood to sell for fair prices. Or any one out there interested in buying bowl blanks and large blanks by the pallets? Or coming out and buying a pick load or two?
We got some wood to move steady.


Thanks
Bill

William, the AAW Website has a list of the clubs. Might want to try there.

There are many PA clubs listed here:

Not sure of the distances, being from L.A. CA.
Being in a club is one of the best things you can do to advance your turning.

Turners Anonymous in Pittsburgh is a pretty active group. They've recently hosted Bill Grumbine and David Ellsworth for demonstrations.

Also - Indiana University of PA (A little NE of Pittsburgh) recently started a woodturning program. You may be able to work out a deal with them as well.
