September Meeting Friday, September 8th, 2000 at 7pm Lonnie McCormick -- Tool Sharpening Workshop This month, our entire meeting will be devoted to tool sharpening. Lonnie McCormick will be our demonstrator and workshop instructor. Keeping our tools sharp is more important than it may seem at first glance: clean cuts promote fast healing of wounds, success with rooting cuttings and making grafts, and more. All of us should be able to sharpen and care for our own tools. This meeting includes a workshop, so bring your tools that need sharpening, any sharpening stones that you have, a container to hold water in which to soak your stones, a block of wood on which to put your stones when sharpening tools, and a heavy plastic bag or the equivalent to protect the table that you work on.
