The Blue Ridge Chapter will meet on 27 June 2026 at Belle Grove Plantation. Planning is underway. Bob Mustain will present making dropleaf table rule joints with both hand planes and a router and Carl Maples will demonstrate an earlier technique. I'm bringing a drop leaf table with what appear to be carved rule joints and round legs. Steve Eckel will present his spice box that he entered into this year's Makers Challenge. A tour of the mansion and its furniture collection will follow a catered lunch.

Contact Steve Dietrich at sapfmbr@gmail.com with questions or to let me know if you want to bring anything for show-and-share.

Doors open at 0830 and the meeting begins at 0900.
 

If this discussion was useful, there are twenty years of them here. Join SAPFM to take part — the forum, the journal, the magazine and the members’ gallery come with membership.
