We arrived and headed for the sound of a planer running, kind of an invitation to woodworker.

Between my Garmin (which was way off) and LesвЂ™s phone, we found the address off of a long drive at 21505 Hwy OO, Eolia, MO 63344, a truly beautiful place. I had some vacation time and Les is retired, so we planned an adventure to seek out the current shop. However, we did see there was a Internet shop and an address and they are one of the SLWG sponsors. The shop was moved out by the late 1990вЂ™s, and was briefly off of Dorsett. Les used a lot of Baltic Birch plywood, where I liked the exotics. We both used to stop there after work for wood parts and supplies. It was on Lindberg right near McDonnell Blvd, called the Wood&Shop, this would have been in the mid 1990вЂ™s. I also invite our member carvers to bring in some of their carved items to share with the group.Д¬all or email Bill Schuchat if you are willing to help.Дid you Wonder about where the Wood & Shop is?ДЄt the August meeting, Les Harmon and I (Bob Kastigar) were talking about an old woodworking shop we used to go to many years ago. Her presentation on carving promises to be amazing. In the meantime, join me at our November 18th meetingВ where internationally known woodcarver, author, teacher, and video instructor, Mary May joins us from Charleston, SC. They have a thorough list of needed items on their website, so please check it out.

So, as you think about your next project or want something that uses up your scrap wood, think about items that Home Sweet Home might need. The Bookcase with Toy Storage caught my eye because it would be an ideal dual-purpose piece for a kidвЂ™s room.

I found this website вЂ“ The Spruce Crafts вЂ“ that has many really cool free plans for all kinds of useful pieces. Items donвЂ™t have to be museum quality, but certainly done well. DonвЂ™t worry if youвЂ™re a beginner just getting started or are trying new techniques. HereвЂ™s where we come inвЂ¦basic household furnishingsвЂ¦especially, bookcases, nightstands, end-tables, dining tables, chairs, and dressers вЂ“ are all the kinds of projects we like to build and always needed at Home Sweet Home. They serve individuals, families, single-parent households, multi-family households, and everything in between. Louis Area who are struggling with stability, homelessness, and/or re-integration. Their partner agencies work with an array of individuals and families in the Greater St. The mission of Home Sweet Home is to give under-served families a sense of pride and to improve the quality of their lives by providing basic household furnishings. ItвЂ™s called Home Sweet Home and I hope to be volunteering there, in February, after we get back from the Antarctic. ThatвЂ™s why I want to call attention to another amazing not-for-profit organization that we might be able to helpвЂ¦if not as an organization, but by you individually. I guess itвЂ™s why I find myself wanting to give back more in November than any other monthвЂ¦because IвЂ™m fortunate and thankful to be in a position to give back and itвЂ™s the right thing to do. I know my feelings and emotions arenвЂ™t unique as we all have our own story. However, it doesnвЂ™t take too long for me to be thankful for the many blessings, friends, family and loved ones in my life вЂ“ for those вЂ“ I am truly thankful and always manage to feel better fairly quickly. November has been a difficult month emotionally for me for the last nine years. IвЂ™m writing this monthвЂ™s letter as I sit in my screened-in porchВ enjoying the 75 degree weather вЂ“ arenвЂ™t we fortunate to live in a place where the temperature can swing close to 40 degrees in one day? Well, I think IвЂ™m lucky, and in many ways.
