Starting at 6:30pm Double Bevel Marquetry with Terry Dote Woodworking Special Interest Groups Meeting/Demo Held at Station 1 of Belgium Cold Springs Fire Dept, 7920 River Road, Baldwinsville Doors open at 5:30pm |
Double Bevel Marquetry is a technique that generally uses a scrollsaw to cut—on an angle—pieces of veneer that are combined to create a picture. Recovered from his Dec 2025 accident, Terry Dote, our presenter, will demonstrate the process at the July 1st meeting of the Woodworking Special Interest Group. As usual, we will hold a Show & Tell and hope to see a recent project of yours on display!
This session will be available as a hybrid session (both in-person and via Zoom) with the Zoom link sent out on the Monday before the meeting. Questions are generally handled via Zoom's Chat feature.
Have Show & Tell that can't easily be transported? Send photos and descriptions ahead of time so they can be added to our slide show. Send an email with photos and a short description to [email protected] by 3pm on July 1st to be included in the slide show.
Guests are always welcome at no fee. Just sign-in at the front desk and mingle with others. We look forward to seeing everyone, hearing about your woodworking escapades, and seeing your recent projects.
