Chris showed a vase he has started.

Miles showed a wooden carpenter’s square he made.

Paul showed a large pen project.

jim showed a vase project he is doing.

Leo went over the use of the concrete bond finish. He first applies the Envirotox epoxy. He then sands this off (It sands well). He then uses Durapro, a thicker one, and thins it with the regular masonry bond. Brush it on and for a smooth finish, brush lots until all the brush lines are gone. Re-coat as needed. For a rough vase project, he sands the uneven sides with a flap sander and a stiff wire brush.

Leo demonstrated a vase that is painted and gold leafed and we agreed to do such a project.

Leo demonstrated a jewelry box and we also agreed to make this.

Need veneer for this.

Make it from 5 1/2 inch  x 24 inch board.

Cut it down on the table saw and band saw and we will finish it on the thickness sander at Leo’s.

We need small bullet hinges for this project.
