When I joined this guild many still were using scissors instead of the rotary cutter because the mats cost too much!! I started doing demos of the new tools and met resistance with everthing new I showed. The majority of the members were charter and elderly and voted everything down that cost money. I went on a member drive and got many new younger members involved. It took several years but finally the newer members had the majority vote. We changed a lot of the by laws and started spending the money hoarded for years. Some of the older members still complain about spending guild money on what they see as unneeded or foolish. They keep using a yard stick and scissors. No kidding.
