Building a Wood Bicycle Frame
with Carl Voss

Club member Carl Voss, an avid cyclist, built a stunning bicycle frame from cherry and maple after taking a class at Marc Adams School of Woodworking. Carl will walk us through solving the challenges of this unorthodox build and will have the bicycle on hand for your inspection.

Meeting, 7:00-8:30 p.m., at the Fred Maytag II Scout Center, 6123 Scout Trail, Des Moines 50321.
