About Leo...

Leo MacNeil is a master craftsman and toolmaker, whose interests include woodwork, stonework, metal machining, toolmaking, optics, forging, demolition, sculpture, music, photography, aircraft flying, history and mathematics. He has been featured on CBC television and on the cover of Woodcuts, a Canadian magazine that had a limited publication and is now a collectors item. He is a gifted teacher of woodwork. A visit to his workshop is an amazing experience. You will see anvils, swages, planes, chisels (mostly all hand made), mysterious tools, gigantic lathes and wood in various stages of production. It is not by chance that the woodcraft group chose Leo's workshop as the venue for their biweekly meetings. Leo made major contributions towards reproducing eighteenth century French furniture for the famed Louisbourg Fortress. His knowledge base is encyclopedic. In 2013 Leo was awarded both the Order Of Canada and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Medals.

If ever there was a Prince of a Man, it is Leo MacNeil.

Mission Statement

The Cape Breton Woodcrafters Association is committed to promoting and enhancing quality woodworking skills to its members. This is to be achieved through knowledge and skill development.

Cape Breton WoodCrafters began in 1981 when local craftsman, Mr. Leo MacNeil, saw a need for a woodworking organization in industrial Cape Breton. This organization provides an environment which promotes a love of all aspects of woodworking , beginning with the acquisition of basic skills, yet challenging each member to develop to his or her full potential.

Membership is open to anyone seriously interested in woodworking. Application for membership must be presented to the secretary of the association who will then present it to the executive for review. The executive will decide to accept or reject the application. If accepted, the applicant will be allowed two sessions to observe and if he/she still wants to join the CBWA, he/she will be required to pay an initial fee, plus the annual membership fee which is set at the first general meeting in the fall session.

** You pay for membership only, not for the instruction nor the instructor.**

New members should realize that there is wide range of abilities within the group. They should not get discouraged because development takes discipline which comes with knowledge, patience and time and practice .They should, however, have basic equipment, a workshop and a serious attitude towards woodworking. It is NOT a night school environment.
