Ernie Dorrill was our demonstrator and did a great job discussing the tools then using them to form a couple different styles of leaves. When Ernie goes to learn something he carries the necessary tools to do just that. He stressed that pencil and paper are a necessity to keep the steps in order in case you want to duplicate something but he also had some plasticene 3 ( I am sure thats not spelled right) There is a photo of it with tool impressions made into it. That way you can duplicate a tool since they are so hard to draw. We had a great time. Max discussed the Knife making class coming up and it was decided we would use propane forges to eliminate the smoke till we get the new side draft forge hoods installed. The following is a link to the pictures I took while at the meeting. Picasa Web Albums - Lyle - July 08 Meeti... Lyle |
