Great Presentation

We were privileged to have a great presentation at our May meeting. Don Zuhlke has been creating artistic carvings of various types for many years. His work can be seen in the Lebanon Hospital lobby, various businesses and hotel lobby’s. He carved many of the Albany Carousel animals and was lead carver on nine of them. His program this evening focused on the use of maple burls in carving. He talked about procurement, preparation, carving, and finishing techniques. He also emphasized caution when purchasing burls, as there are poachers who illegally harvest and sell burls. Get a receipt from the seller to avoid problems. He answered many questions during the program as well as after the meeting.
