In June we had the opportunity to meet on a Saturday and see the unique setup of Joe Peachey’s Amish shop, as he demonstrated his turning techniques on his lathe.
We also had the opportunity to view and purchase burls that Joe has been collecting from local lumberjacks As well as some of his own artwork and we got to stop for lunch at the Country Village Restaurant.
It was an excellent opportunity to get a glimpse into the history of turning, to acquire some truly marvelous burls for our own turning projects, to acquire some unique art at reasonable prices, and to further enjoy the company of fellow Woodturners and their spouses in a very relaxed setting and the drive over took us through some really beautiful country!
