I do what the voices in my wife's head tell me to.

ALL - sounds like there is enough interest to start to firm up a plan. I am thinking Tues, Nov 19th. "Meet an Munch" starting around 6 with TDs song and dance shortly thereafter (6:30ish) until he is done, or everyone leaves, whichever comes first.

I am open to a differnt date that week, if someone really wants to come , but a tues wont work for ya.

TD is going to help with sharing more specifics (like a map to my place) when we get a bit closer.

As noted I will add a new post closer to the date as a reminder. Look forward to the education and socialization.

Cheers

Nice of you to off up your Home. I would be interested to attend as one of the Curious group. When time gets closer, will you or Tube Dude give a list of what supplies we may need?

[#0000FF]You will need to bring nothing to the first session. But something to take notes might be helpful. I will bring all of my stuff and introduce each item as I go along. You can make notes or refer to the writeup I have put together on Making Fligs. I am attaching a copy here, but it will be undergoing some updates and revisions. Hail progress...or to hail with it.

[#0000FF]For those who decide to ease (or jump) into making their own stuff, we can hold follow up meetings or group workshops...or you can visit my playroom for one-on-one advanced tutorials. A lot of the questions that develop as you go along can be easily answered by PMs and/or photos.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]It ain't rocket science but it does take a bit of basic manual dexterity and creativity. My earliest attempts were VERY crude but the fish still voted for them. That encouraged me to keep doing better.

What a great offer from TubeDude and Cowboypirate. I would love to attend. I don't know yet what that day will look like but will try to keep it open. I will make sure to confirm if I can so you know how many are coming.
