Directions?

Getting close - Any more info on the demos and a link to the directions? I've had several interested non-guild members ask for directions. I did not save the old link or directions (I know how to get there).

Meeting Demo's

The demonstrations scheduled for the meeting are:

Carl Rechsteiner will forge a blade from a Stephan Fowler damascus/pattern welded billet. This will the lead off demo in the 'cool of the day'.

Scott Davidson will demo homemade micarta.

At the last Guild meeting, Dan Masson did a little impromptu wire inlay demo. He has volunteered to present a more indepth demo.

I will do a followup on the Mexican Sword Knot/Two-Strand Diamond Knot demo from the last meeting. There is more than one way to tie a Carrick Bend, the predecessor to the Mexican Sword/Two-Strand Diamond knot. Think we'll hang a knife on the lanyard to make it real interesting.

See you on the 13th.
