Interest in a Jointery Class????

[DaveO]

Congratulations Travis, I hope all goes well. It is nice to be able to plan for a birth, I was awoke at 3:00 am with the infamous statement "we have to go now" I will give the wife a huge prop, she had been in labor since 12:00 but wanted to let me get some sleep. Just remember it didn't happen if you ain't got any pics...so show us the new little one, when you can.
Dave

Pencils
Small pad of paper for notes if you want.
Bevel Gage
Small square – Small machinist if you have one.

Wood
You are going to want lots of practice material.
Size around 4”x12”x1/2” roughly. (As long as they are mostly the same width.)
Bring at least 8 pieces (poplar, maple, oak, whatever) (Not Pine!!!)(No Exotics!!!)
Bring some ¾” stock too – We’ll do some larger dovetailing too. (Probably some sliding dovetails too.)

Thanks John, I have very few of these hand tools so I'll be shopping! I'm feeling the familiar symptoms of our unique communicable disease, named for you of course!:eusa_danc
I'll be ready.

Hello John,
I'd really enjoy joining y'all, but will probably just have gotten back from being out of town for several days. When is the drop-dead sign-up date?

John - I joined recently and would love the opprotunity to come to your class.

 

[woodguy1975]

Everyone have directions, tools list, and materials list?

Did I get all the info to the folks coming for the jointery class? Remember it starts at 10am. Bring coffee if you are a coffee drinker. I don't drink it so I never have it around.

Remember to bring your wood, tools, and questions.

Thanks,

John

Re: Everyone have directions, tools list, and materials list?

John, is there anything else we can bring for refreshments? Biscuits, donuts and the like?

 

[woodguy1975]

Sure if someone wants to volunteer to pick up some morning snacks that would be really awsome. :icon_thum:icon_thum:icon_thum:icon_thum

 

[b4man]

I'll bring some sausage and ham biscuits. How many of us will be there?

 

[woodguy1975]

It looks like we will have 8 students and one instructors. :lol:

A big class!!!!!! It's going to be a blast.

See ya,

John

Barbara, thanks for offering to bring breakfast, but don't buy anything for me, please. I do appreciate your offer, but I can't have dairy/milk, so I will take care of myself.

..speaking of which, John, are there any fast food restaraunts nearby you or should I bring something for myself for lunch? I think getting pizza for the group is a good idea, but I'll just slip out quickly and get a burger or sub or som'n....ok?

....I'm sitting here waiting for UPS to bring my new japanese saw....

Cheers,
Chris

 

[woodguy1975]

There are a few down the road a few miles. I can tell you how to get to them. There is a subway and Hardees about 5 miles away. I am a little out in the country. LOL

See ya,

John
