I'd love to have a metal working/machine shop of the same caliber here, but realize the amount of people interested would be way too small, and the cost of machinery ten fold what woodworking would be.

Just as an aside..members of The Woodworkers Club will be at Lake Sumter Landing square on October 13, October 20, November 3 and 10 and December 8 and 15 to show toys that have been made by members. Also, these toys will be for sale as presents, with the proceeds going to the ongoing Toys for Needy Children program.
You also wiull be able to join the Woodworker's Club.

Great information Here
I know also that my quilt guild, and I think maybe all the quilt guilds in TV, make quilts for the doll beds the wood shop makes, for charity. I think there are other groups that make handmade dolls.
I have a question though - I see someone posted that you can take some furniture for repairs. Can anyone tell me if you can have pieces built from the start?- I would love to have a potting bench/hutch - for outdoor use. Would need to be made out of treated lumber, I presume (I'm not a woodworker). |

We thought the same thing!!! If there's a Wood Shop wouldn't it be cool to have a Metal Shop? I've always wanted to learn ho to weld.
