Well we have just finished our 4th fiscal Quarter Fund Drive. So now is the time to try maximize our income for the whole year. One of our goals this first fiscal year is to leave the Corporation with a reserve. If we do and how much it will be, will depend on how many tickets we can sell, so buy a lot.
Welcome to the 2009 Spring Raffle to benefit the North Carolina Woodworker, Inc. and our website. There are a number of excellent prizes and your $5 ticket gives you a chance at any of them. The more tickets you buy, the better your chances of winning any of the prizes. The drawing will be held at the Spring 2009 Picnic on May 16th and ticket sales will cease at 9:00 AM on Thursday, May 14th.
The Prize Lots have a retail value in excess of $2,400 (in order of selection)
1) A selection of Hardwood Burls contributed by Chris Brittain (liftnaleg1):
2) About 100 BF of 4/4 clear Ash donated by Jack Murdock (Saw4You). These are partially air dried (about 12-14% Moisture Content) and in widths up to 12":
3) A Veritas Standard Block Plane, donated by Lee Valley Tools (includes a Plane Sack, not shown):
4) A Veritas Bullnose Plane, donated by Lee Valley Tools (includes a Plane Sack, not shown):
5) A Lie-Nielsen Bronze Skew Block Plane (right hand), donated by Lie-Nielsen Tools (includes a Plane Sack, not shown). This plane has a removable side plate and adjustable fence for rabbeting. The skewed low angle blade facilitates smooth cutting in hardwoods with difficult grains:
