The Northern Hills Woodworkers' Guild covers a geographical area from Sundance, Wyoming east to Sturgis, and from Lead/Deadwood north to the state line. Our members are from all of the above and Spearfish, Belle Fourche, Whitewood and several other towns.

Skill levels range from brand new woodworkers who have never run a table saw to some very accomplished professionals who have owned or managed large shops. Our members are of both sexes, a wide range of ages, and they pursue a number of different paths. They make canes and barnwood picture frames, build custom furniture, create turnings and carvings, and do fretwork and cabinetry, among other pursuits.

We meet on the last Thursday of every month at 7:00 PM at one of the members' shops. We spend about half an hour on business, and then move on to show and tell, special guests, presentations and other activities. Meetings are very informal, more social than businesslike, and refreshments are supplied. Members help each other with challenges and problems, share tips and jigs, discuss techniques, tools, finishes and species. No experience is necessary for membership.
