Welcome to Knox District Woodworking Club.

If you are interested in anything to do with wood, then we extend to you, our invitation to join our club members on the 1st Wednesday of the month, to see our club facilities, and
meet with fellow Club Members.

No experience with woodworking is needed. Our Club members will be only too happy to share their experiences and hospitality with you. Join a project group and become involved in some of  the activities we regularly enjoy. From carving, wood-turning, furniture building, modelling to just talking about wood related matters. Explore the Club facilities offered by KDWC.

Membership costs are modest, so come along as a visitor to meet us.  You are under no obligation to join when you visit to learn more about the facinating and rewarding world of WOOD!

Mr. Alf Stephens: (late) Founder
Passed away 18th Feb 1999
  
The club deeply regrets the
passing of former President:

Why not come along as a visitor to one of our monthly meetings (1st Wednesday, 7:30PM) and meet up with fellow 'woodies' and get to see our facilities, and see what projects and fun we get up to!  See 'Ingrained' newsletter for latest activities of the club.


The times the Club is open is something we can boast about - possibly one of the most available clubs around!  (in the order of  36 hours every week except Xmas).   The last page of the most current Ingrained newsletter outlines the most up-to-date information, but here's just a quick timetable example.

Club AIMS:

1. To promote woodcraft by creating an interest in working with wood.
2. To foster communication amongst woodworkers and assist them in
    achieving excellence in design and craftmanship.
3. To promote recognition of woodworking skills.
