Excellent news from the Big Island...Veteran luthier Bob Gleason has graced the UGH with his membership. Bob will no doubt get the word out to the Big Island builders that there is a Hawaii Guild. Mahalos once more to our Big Island builders.
Much mahalos to member Keith Luke who donated a roll of patriotic stamps for official UGH use.

Much to our delight Rudy Tamayo aka the wokman dropped by dues in hand ready to go now that hes completed his 56 Porche project. Rudys entrance will translate into Rudys world of jigs and devices for fellow UGH members. No doubt in the near future we will feature some of the wokmans creations.

FOR SALE: It is an old Bailey #7 jointer plane. It is 22" long and has a corrugated sole. I own 3 of these things and I guess that is more than enough. There is no better way to join tops and backs or make neck scarf joints than with a good plane. Excellent working condition, Rosewood handles, easy to use. Price is $90 plus postage. Interested? Email Bob Gleason at pegasus@hilo.net
