LAS VEGAS - Attendees to the AWFS Fair are invited to stop by the Make & Take booth #1277.  The booth will be run by volunteers from the Society of Wood Manufacturing (SWM), a Southern California-based group that is focused on supporting woodworking education programs and connecting teachers and students with our industry, and from the Inland Woodworkers Association.

At the Make & Take booth, attendees will be able to build a wood mallet and get it custom laser engraved. There will also be laser “spaceship” ornaments, and a daily raffle for a handmade “spaceship” chip and dip bowl, all courtesy of volunteers from SWM and the Inland Woodworkers Association. Equipment in action includes a Universal Laser machine, courtesy of Paton Group, and a new Hammer HNC3 825 CNC router from Felder USA, Other Make & Take sponsors and suppliers include Inland Woodworkers Association, LMT Onsrud and Royal Plywood.

The collected donations will go toward industry education efforts, including SkillsUSA California.
