Have you ever enjoyed the slightly confused look from someone examining one of your completed pieces and the follow-up questions around how you accomplished one or more aspects of that piece? Well, our April Demonstrator has on more than one occasion. Don’t miss this one! Forever club member, Dave Best will be sharing some of his Best Techniques developed over the years in creating his unique pieces.
Dave’s tenure with the SPSW club reaches back to the very first meeting in 1992 or 1993. At that time, He was working fulltime and had a young family, so he could not afford the time to drive up to Seattle to attend the only woodturning club meeting in the area. Then he heard through a friend, Tom Richards, that a meeting was to be held at the Fife Community Center to form a new local woodturning club and he should attend. Dave not only attended that first meeting along with 40 to 45 other men, he joined the club that night. Over the subsequent thirty plus years Dave was not always able to attend the meetings, but he stayed connected with the club. When his life allowed, he stepped up to a larger role and supported the club in the role of VP and Director of Programing. Something near and dear to me. Dave served in that capacity for seven years. These days, one can often find Dave busy taking quality photographs of club member pieces that are
brought to our monthly meetings. Many of these images are then shared in this monthly newsletter! Thanks Dave!
