Using Bas' suggestion of a shop crawl with content, this post is to announce a Raleigh based workshop on Oct. 3rd.
Myself and Andy (carved tunes) are joining forces to offer a hands-on workshop on how to make a bow and the various methods of bending wood to form. Andy will be demonstrating how to carve and bend a recurve bow and will have you working on your own. I will demo how to easily steam bend the hoop for a bow back chair and will have you making your own shepherd crook walking sticks. That should consume the morning.
I will provide a catered lunch from a great local establishment. We will serve lunch in the shop to provide extra time if needed. As the bending forms and steam box take up some room, we are limiting the number of folks to ten.
I will keep track of the first 10 members indicate yes. To help lock in those that want to attend I am requesting all attendees make a $10 donation to the site - the lunch alone will be worth that!
My shop is in NE Raleigh only a few miles off Capital Blvd. - Details to follow.
