Ok... The signups have begun.
There is room for 12 participants.
Those that are paid and registered are below.

*********************************************************
ROUTER CARVING DAY
Each participant will go home with their own custom wall art or signage.
I will provide the tools or you can bring your own.
I will provide the wood, paint, and stain
You will prepare your line artwork in advance.
I will show you techniques on how to create your own wall mounted 3 dimensional artwork.
Before I can determine pricing and logistics I need to determine what (if any) interest level there might be.
Of course this can also be a generic creative/art day at our place so you are welcome to bring any paintings or carvings you might already be working on.
Please respond with any interest and we can go from there.
Thanks

This sounds really cool. I really like all the work you did in your home bar. I just might have to travel for this one.

I have been a long time fan of your work in your homebar, especially your trim work. I would love to learn to do trim work for my home bar. I have two routers and a few bits. I can take my horses and wood. How many hours is your workshop and are you willing to teach trim work routing?

Oh yes... it will be a full day.
The intense stuff will be early in the day but the end of the day will be all about waiting for paint and stain to dry...
That would probably be a good time to hang out in the tiki room and have a few beers.

I'm interested.
Do you use a plunge router or a regular router?

You must use a plunge router.
Im working on pricing options right now but there will probably be 2 prices.
A lower price if you bring your own plunge router and a higher price if you need a loaner.
I will purchase 2-4 more routers using proceeds from guests so that there are enough for us to share and pass around.
The best way to use routers is to have several with different bits in them so that you dont spend time loading and unloading bits into the router.

This is my 2nd router design, I did some chisel work as well on this piece.
I love how our South Pacific room turned out by using the router. Its a good tool to have.
Looking forward to expanding what I already know and having good people in our home.
