PATINA May 17, 2026 Meeting–Member Highlights

The May 2026 in-person CLUB meeting in McLean VA, will be SUNDAY May 17. Start time is 9:00am

The theme will be our very popular “member highlights”

Once a year we encourage members to take the stage and share a project that they completed during the year. It would be cool to see anything in wood, leather, metal, artwork, or any other tradecraft.

Alternatively, please bring a favorite tool that was acquired, bring a “What’s-It”, or bring some questions that other members may help resolve. We have some extraordinarily knowledgeable and talented members as well some “apprentices” so it’s appropriate to let folks at all levels step up.

Below are some past projects that members have shared with the club 

As always, we will use the upper lot only for tailgating. Please park in the lower lot if you are not planning to set up a table. Start time: 9:00am for tailgating.

At approximately 11am after tailgating, we will have a mini-auction.  Following that, the club will feature the guest speaker’s presentation and demonstration. Check back regularly to see more information.
