    If you have your own tools to use for this class such as cutter, grozer, breaker or running pliers, please bring them.  If you do not we will provide them.  Be sure to have your name on all of your tools.

    REGISTRATION BEGINS 5/2

    Whether you are a new member or a member that hasn't been around the club for awhile and need a refresher course, please join us for these trainings to learn about the ring saws using a variety of blades!  How to use them and when.

    Ring saw:  You will learn to cut intricate patterns with the "regular" and "slim" blade ring saws.  We will discuss and practice the difference between using the "mega" blade use and the "regular/slim" blade machines.  We are also adding blade specific for cutting dichroic glass.

    This training will also involve cleaning up after your time on the saw!

    Safety:  As always, remember to wear safety glasses and closed toe shoes.

    This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - First Friday of the month.   This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.  We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.  

    The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.  Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.  We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.

    Thanks in advance for your help.
