Hi folks,
As those of you who were at the meeting on Tuesday already know, Russ Halbert passed away, unexpectedly, about a week ago. In the short time that he was a member, he made some noticeable contributions to the equipment in our space, and I know that his conversations around the table on meeting nights will be missed.
Russ's wife, Sharon, has generously offered to give OMG the lumber and other materials that Russ had in his home workshop. Russ dabbled in a variety of woodworking projects, so I suspect the collection will be large and diverse. It will be a welcome addition to our materials supply, for sure.
I need 1-2 sets of hands to help me on Saturday to retrieve the donation. Thinking we'll leave OMG around 11:30a or so, and should be back at the space and unloaded by 1:00p. The start time is flexible, if necessary.
Please let me know if you can help. I'll drive!
Thanks,
Eric J. Kaplan

I can help out and have a suburban I can help haul with as well.
I'm sorry to hear about Russ, he helped me out with a lathe project last winter, he even recreated my crude napkin drawing in cad with proper measurements.
Let me know if I'm needed.
