Interested in CNCs?

Sin City Woodworkers Follow the trail of sawdust to our next meeting... Been thinking about CNCs but didn’t know where to start?   Wait - if you don’t know what CNC stands for - start here. Sin City Woodworkers, a Vegas valley social and networking group committed to serious (and not so serious!) woodworking discussions, meet on the third Wednesday of each month to share everything from techniques and project ideas to information about local suppliers and much more. Our next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, March 20 at 7:00, and we’re in for a treat!  Jeff Sher will be leading our meeting this month, and bringing his Shaper Origin  handheld CNC to demo and discuss. As Jeff explained - he did some research and was sold on the Shaper Origin, with its unique advantages of allowing mobile CNC cutting and more.  As Jeff explains - despite some limitations as all tools have, this router has added almost unlimited design possibilities to his woodworking. He’ll discuss his woodworking background and what led up to his CNC research. He’ll also share the story of finding the Origin and how he intends on using it with future projects.  Finally, he’ll show how designs get implemented and used with the tools. We’ll also be starting a annual Spring dues drive, where your $20 donation to the group - which is completely voluntary - goes a long way in funding our woodworking endeavors, such as our MeetUp membership and various charitable donations throughout the year. (As well as allowing us to throw a heckuva year end party in December.) So - please consider throwing a Jackson our way and joining the official ranks of Sin City Woodworkers. It’s the best $20 you’ll spend for your woodworking this year!  Finally - we haven't done a Show and Tell in a while, so if you've made something cool in the last few months, please bring it to the meeting and share it with our group! As always, this meeting will be held at Studio: Wood It Is!, 2267 West Gowan, unit 106 in North Las Vegas.  The public is welcome to attend the meeting, so members - please feel free to bring a guest along. But remember that there are a limited number of chairs in the woodshop. Attendees might want to bring a folding chair if they wish to sit during the meeting.  If you have questions or need directions, call the studio at 702-631-1870.
