Lapidary Shop
The club has a Lapidary Shop, which includes rock and trim saws, several cabbing units and polishers.
Club members provide classes for novices and, those more skilled, work at their own pace on jewelry and other lapidary arts projects. The club encourages the public to stop in and use its shop a couple of times at no charge.
Although we will not hold regular meetings in July and August, our
shop will have its regular hours.
