[How Do I-Main Site] search

Is there a way to search the member list by location. It would be nice to be able to find woodworkers nearby by proximity. The alphabetic list is too cumbersome for this.

When in the members alph. listing, on the right side of page, click search members, then advanced, you should have the option there to check by county.

If you go to the Member List and select Advanced Search (under the Search button), you can get a list by county(ie search for all Wake county), city etc.

(There used to be a state map which had an icon (flag) by all members home town, but I suspect that that is now gone. Probably too many members now to have a meaningful "flag" for each member.)

Try the Advanced Search option. That should give you what you are lookin' for.
