Among the qualities that make SDFWA a fine organization, contributions of time and effort by our own members stand out as most important. From time to time, to highlight these members, you will hear about one or more of them who have recently done something significant to support our activities. Here are five to start the new feature. Gary Anderson is the only SDFWA member in recent memory to fill two vacancies in a single year; first Publicity Chairman, then SDFWA secretary to fill the position I left in February. As Publicity chairman he revitalized the committee's activities, created a SDFWA Facebook page that has even impressed some Facebook skeptics (check it out to see for yourself), arranged two TV interviews at the Design in Wood Show and made a great head start in publicity for the Fall Seminar. Along the way he offered to provide distinctive SDFWA lapel pins that he manufactures to the association at his cost. meetings for many years. This is by no means an easy job. It involves lugging numerous, heavy cartoons of woodworking magazines to and from each general meeting, storing them between meetings and acting as sales clerk, bookkeeper and inventory manger – in short, offering our members a much valued chance to get excellent periodicals at a fraction of original cost. Hearing that Pat was no longer able to manage the physical demands of this job, Roberto came forward recently to offer to take over this task even though he has a day job and not a great deal of spare time to cart magazines all over town. Sincere thanks to these dedicated members, for keeping our organization healthy and growing. There is no shortage of other members on the waiting list for recognition. You will hear about them in forthcoming newsletter issues. I hope some of you readers will also be added to the list in the near future when you see an opportunity to help. At a recent board meeting we discovered that the Dick Ugoretz our Craftsman List had not been updated for a long while. Worse, no one was assigned to this time A playhouse built by volunteers! consuming but unexciting task. I told the board I would try to recruit a member to fill the vacancy expecting this to be a challenge. The next day long time member, Ron Rossi, without being asked, made my day by volunteering to take on the task. Mike McElhiney just can’t stop volunteering. First he stepped up to fill a vacancy for the position of Newsletter Editor. He continued and enhanced the improvements begun by his predecessor, Ross Rehart. Then Mike took over the job of creating personalized wooden name badges for our members. He recently made a fine engraved gavel to thank KUSI TV for doing an interview to publicize our Design in Wood Exhibition. Pat Kowalski and Roberto Weinstein deserve dual recognition. Pat and her helpers have been managing our magazine sales program at general 2 Toy Programs Roger, Terry and Charlie Take care of the toy business for SDWFA.

RIGID OSCILLATING EDGE BELT/ SPINDLE SANDER September Program Furniture in Museum collections of SouthernCalifornia About two years ago, Mike did a presentation on "Furniture Styles in History" with examples from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Continuing with this theme, this month Mike will be presenting more examples of furniture styles, this time from museums and exhibits in Southern California. Museums in the presentation will include the Getty, Huntington Gallery, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), as well as other exhibits on display from San Diego Up to Central California. For each location, Mike will go over what can be found there as well as what you shouldn't expect. We will go through the major styles throughout history and see examples from these museums and exhibits that are locally available for viewing to woodworkers who might want to attempt to build something in one of the styles. The meeting will be on Wednesday September 25 at 7:00PM in the Al Bahr Temple located at 5440 Kearny Mesa Rd. (behind the Hampton Inn) See you there, Del Cover 4 Craftsman List need to be made.

I couldn’t make it to the shop tour last Saturday so went a day early to get a look at this incredible project. After finally finding the house, or series of buildings, I started wandering around looking for Lou. I found him, frantically cleaning and organizing his woodshop. Actually Lou and Deinna have a series of shops— Wood, metal, stained glass, photography, woodturning, painting and ceramics. They are all housed in the back of the property under this sign: Despite the temperature which hovered around 130 degrees, I managed to follow Lou as he took me on a tour of the extended shop and the estate. First we saw the lathe room, currently pristine, but with promise of many chips. The car, Lou explained, With my incredible photographic skills, I managed to capture most of the name of the “saloon” where these two people spend a great deal of time, the “R something and Spur.” Inside, which was a lot like outside except for having a roof and seperat spaces, I found the woodshop and evidently failed to take a picture of it. Instead, I took two rather nice pictures of my feet. But you can imagine it—table saw, work bench, other tools here and there. Band saw hovering in the corner. I did manage to take a picture of Lou outside his woodshop. Hew is standing next to a DeWalt planer and a pass through sander looking quite pleased. Would eventually have to go. Despite impending heat stroke, I followed Lou, who is not affected by heat, into a lovely covered patio area where every single thing, except the table, was done by Deinna. Deinna, who is affected by heat, evidently never comes out of the air conditioned house unless the temperature is less than 110 degrees. She has limits 8 Shop Tour Continued but only to her heat tolerance. The artistry is without bounds. Deinna’s response to a blank wall is to fill it with art. Lou quails at the beginning of these projects. He wants to begin small but Deinna moves directly to LARGE and the fun begins. The candles on the table must be made of stone because they did not melt as I staggered through. Lou assured me it was a ‘dry heat’ and that my inability to walk straight was probably just age and not heat stroke. The pool was just on the other side of the patio and I considered leaping into it. The bubbles warned me that this was currently a cauldron and not a cooling pool. Finally I ducked inside, met and embraced Air Conditioning in all its glory and met Deinna for the first time. She was a good and kind hostess, offered water immediately and showed me some of her art work. We talked stained glass - she is an artist with glass - and she also showed me some of her ceramic work on the walls. Lot5s of Moxie in this couple who are having the time of their lives making their environment a work of art. Thanks for letting me—and the club—come and see your place. Too bad if you missed out, but I bet if you asked nicely, Lou and Deinna would give you a private tour. Just wait ‘til it cools down. 9 Mark Fuller [email protected] (619) 733-8322 10 11 12 Editorial On Rules There are scads of rules in life. Rules of the road to keep us safe, rules of-the house, some sensible, some not so much. Keep the toilet lid down is a rule, but why not up? We compromise at my house. The upstairs toilet always has its lid up and the downstairs one is lid down. Rules to keep the dinner table a pleasant place. TV off, phones not answered, conversation pleasant, and only on rare occasion can one hork chewed peas or milk thru the nose after an unexpectedly good joke. And the rules at school. Never say 'nipple' while teaching. Don't turn your back on students, keep the lesson lively. But it is the rules of carpentry, of the shop I want to address here. Machines come with rules, loud rules in red and orange, emblazoned on their surfaces. "Injury will occur if you place your hands on the in-feed roller" or just "DANGER" or "KEEP FINGERS CLEAR OF BLADE," a 'duh' rule but a good one as a friend's recent experience shows. Some very real dangers exist in wood shops and rules regarding these tools are reasonable. crest rail 20”, four legs, not tippy and so on. I looked to Sam Maloof for some guidance in chair design. He warns that tools can have an effect on the outcome of a chair. Using only power tools doesn’t give the feel of handmade work. But if you become a purist and use only hand tools, you might starve to death. He quoted Wharton Eshrick who said “I use any tool that'll do the job. If I have to use my teeth, I use my teeth." So what are the rules of chairs? Del Cover showed us a chair that looked as if it fit a king. It was truly regal but perhaps lacked comfort. Maloof’s chairs look homey and inviting. Eric Freyer’s chairs have some of the quality of Sam Maloof chairs, but are a bit more flowery. Even hand tools have rules. Generally they are common sense rules, but some are rules learned from elders or from experience. Don't plane against the grain was taught to me by my Looking good and feeling good are rules grandfather, an experienced carpenter who used enough for me. George Nakashima, with his nothing but hand tools most of his life. I learned cantilevered chair, combined simplicity, function on my own to not push chisels toward my hand. and comfort. Pretty good rules to start with. Keep Chairs are notoriously difficult to make. And it simple, make it functional and strive for there are loads of design rules to help the comfort. I’m going to my shop now. There is a beginning chair maker along. Seat height is 18”, chair out there waiting to be created. 13 Officers and Committees Officers President Dick Ugoretz 858-490-6295 [email protected] Vice-President Ed Gladney 858-484-4366 [email protected] Treasurer Bernie Burke 760-723-0972 [email protected] Secretary Gary Anderson 619 670 1181 [email protected] Member at Large Robert Threm 858-484-4366 [email protected] 760-489-9804 [email protected] Membership Sia McGown 619-223-3259 SDfWA.
