I’m looking to contact other woodworkers, amateur or professional, in the Central Louisiana area (Alexandria, Natchitoches, Leesville, etc.) interested in a woodworkers guild or club. As far as I know there’s not such a club or guild around here and I think we should have one. (I think there’s a turning club in Lafayette or Lake Charles.)

I am not aware of a general woodworkers club in south or central Louisiana though. -- People say I hammer like lightning. It's not that I'm fast -- it's that I never hit the same place twice!

Mostly everything was based off of word of mouth and personal connections. -- It's made of wood. Real sturdy.--Chubbs Peterson
