During the annual Mid-South Woodturners Guild

I was surprised to be recognized for service to the club

and awarded this beautiful platter.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

More Boxes for Beads of Courage

Five more lidded boxes for 

the Mid-South Woodturners Guild

The lids are reversible.

I created these as part of my

demonstration on segmented boxes

presented during MSWG's Oktoberfest 2016.

My Multiaxis Tablet Stand article has been published

in the June 2016 issue of American Woodturner.

(Vol. 31, no. 3 - Journal of the American Association of Woodturners)

And what an honor to have it published

in the issue celebrating AAW's 30th anniversary.

This is Julie's iPad resting against the top level of her prop stand.

This photo shows her iPad resting on one of the lower levels.

(overhead lighting can cause glare -

 the multiaxis design allows for different screen angles)

These tablet stands were finished using 

Annie Sloan chalk paint and clear wax.

Thank you AAW for sharing my article with your readers.
