I live in Greencastle Indiana about 30 miles west of Indianapolis. I thought it might be a great idea for Indiana Lumber jocks to try and get togeather somewhere and get to know each other and share some skills. I would actually like to start a woodworking club where each month or so we could meet up and share our great hobby of woodworking. If you have interest, please respond and we can get see what we can get started. Maybe we can get a northern Indiana club, a central Indiana club, and a southern Indiana club going with a state meeting each year at the woodworking show at the Indiana state fair grounds. If you are on the borders in Illinois or Ohio and are interested, please respond.
