Club Activities 

Monthly Meetings: Our meetings take place on the third Monday of the month at the Allwood Community Church located at 100 Chelsea Rd, Clifton, NJ 07012. The meetings start at 7pm and end at 9pm.

Group Projects: Presently, a group of 8 members are building a portable workbench for the club’s use. The bench is being styled after the Moravian Workbench popularize by Will Myers. It’s a sturdy and portable workbench which can be assembled in minutes. Project lead Bob S. stated that he hopes to have the bench ready for our December meeting.

Skill Building Sessions:  Skill building sessions are an opportunity for members with a particular expertise to conduct hands on classes for other members. The sessions usually take place at a member’s workshop and tend to be held during nicer weather. Here are some examples previous sessions that the club has conducted. 

Activities and Trips: The club has visited the workshops of various craftsman such as George Nakashima and Sacco and Birnbaum. We are currently planning a trip to the Yale University Art Museum where we will tour their collection of fine furniture.
