These included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> The darker the glue stick the higher holding power<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li> Melt the glue stick in a pan and dip the face of the item instead of spot gluing<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li> In unheated shops it is wise to warm your wood first before gluing<\/li>\n<p>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This was an enlightening presentation, to see all of these options assembled in one place. It was evident that there is a solution for whatever shape or size piece of wood that you want to mount on your lathe, and often there are several options! Thanks, Dave!<\/p>\n<p>The meeting opened with Scott Croucher from Lee Valley who gave us an overview of the upcoming &#8216;Celebrating Woodturning in Nova Scotia&#8217; week. Lee Valley Tools, in conjunction with the Nova Woodturners Guild, will celebrate the state of woodturning in Nova Scotia. There will be a week of hands-on instruction, lectures and demonstrations in the art of turning. The presenters for these seminars are some of the finest turners in the province. There will also be classes with famed bowl turner, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bowlmakerinc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mike Mahoney<\/a>. The week begins on February 27th and culminates with our Competition Awards on March 6th. This promises to be a fantastic week!<\/p>\n<p>During the Show and Tell sessions members presented and spoke on several beautiful and finely crafted pieces that included pens, platters and segmented forms:<\/p>\n<div id=\"photopost\"><img src='http:\/\/ravenview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/01_27_10_the_nwg_checks_out_chucking_options_03.jpg' alt='Darrell Eisner pens' \/><\/div>\n<div id=\"photopost\"><img src='http:\/\/ravenview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/01_27_10_the_nwg_checks_out_chucking_options_04.jpg' alt='Burl platter' \/><\/div>\n<div id=\"photopost\"><img src='http:\/\/ravenview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/01_27_10_the_nwg_checks_out_chucking_options_05.jpg' alt='Wooden platter' \/><\/div>\n<div id=\"photopost\"><img src='http:\/\/ravenview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/01_27_10_the_nwg_checks_out_chucking_options_06.jpg' alt='Segmented turning' \/><\/div>\n<div id=\"photopost\"><img src='http:\/\/ravenview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/01_27_10_the_nwg_checks_out_chucking_options_07.jpg' alt='Segmented woodturning' \/><\/div>\n<p>Tonight&#8217;s meeting was held at Home Depot with 25 members attending, which was an excellent turnout considering the bad weather that had already dropped 10cm of snow.<\/p>\n<p>Back to the shop\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This month&#8217;s meeting of the Nova Woodturners Guild focused on chucking options, the upcoming Woodturning Week at Lee Valley and a well participated Show and Tell session.
