October 13 General Meeting - All About Wiring

Alison — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 21:19:03 +0000

Even if you think you know all about wiring and how to do it well, you shouldn�t miss this opportunity to raise your knowledge and skills to a new height. John Doig is one of the best wirers! No matter how many wires and number of branches on a tree, John can always ensure that no wires are crossed and the tree looks immaculate.

Bring a tree to wire and get down to some serious work. You�ll take home a better tree. If you don�t bring your own wire the club has some but would appreciate a donation to cover the cost of materials.
