I’ve just enrolled in Fundamentals of Woodworking at my local school of fine woodworking. I’ll certainly continue my participation in the WWMC, but I’m so excited for this opportunity. The class is hand tool centered and meets for 4 hours a week for 17 weeks with unlimited lab time.
This is going to be the beginning of something very special in my life. I look forward to sharing new projects and ideas with all of you.

Congratulations Denise, that sounds like it is going to be a lot of fun!

Thanks everyone.
The first class meets Jan 17. I’ve wanted to take some classes from the school, but didn’t think I could fit it in with my work. Now they do “weekend” school so I think it will work well with the rest of my life. I was pleasantly surprised that they begin with hand tools. Of course the instructors will not likely have Paul’s level of experience, but I’ll have the benefit of Paul’s instruction from WWMC. Plus I’m still waiting for Paul to offer another basics class in the USA.
Good for you. I’m investigating a woodworking course on building a Shaker table held evenings in a local high school. I’ll find out later today what the course entails. I’ve always shied away from woodworking schools because of the emphasis on power tools, especially the table saw. Too many close calls on a table saw but at least I still have ten fingers to count on. Good luck.
