Previous Tours

About 70 people made the trek to Fallbrook on the 15th and were rewarded with a very cool wood shop, courtesy of owner and proud designer, Bernie Burke, as well as a terrific scenic view on a fine sunny day. The doughnuts weren't too bad either and a good time was apparently had by all. We are very grateful to Bernie for hosting the event, and also to Jewell Burke, for opening her exceptional quilting studio to the visitors. A few photos are shown below.

Bernie said he would be happy to answer additional questions about the shop, and also to show the shop to individual members who had to miss the tour. Contact him at 760-723-0972 or bernieburke@roadrunner.com.

August Tour FEEDBACK

 

The August shop tour at Tropical Exotic Hardwoods in Carlsbad (8/27/11) was a grand success! Over 70 members attended and, in addition to eyeballing all those interesting woods, they appeared to relish owner Mitch Talcove's stories and info about the exotic wood business. The 42" Jatoba slab door prize, generously donated by TEH, was won by Don Spangler. He seemed to be pleased, judging by the all-smiles photo below with Don (left), Mitch and the prize. Many thanks to all who attended! And thanks to Marty Talcove for the event images.

 

Our next shop tour, set for Saturday, October 15 from 9-12am, will be hosted by Bernie Burke of Fallbrook. You'll want to see this superb facility. Details shortly.
