Mike, thanks for posting the link. I enjoyed reading the article, especially the commentary by Noel.

Rent must be due next Wednesday! A man in his right mind would not part with such treasures for a few paltry dollars...or at all!

Mike, thanks for the nostalgic return to days gone bye. I well remember Mr. Edmondson, my drafting teacher. Back in my HS days, our freshman year we took a quarter of each of the following: mechanical drawing, machine shop, wood shop and metal shop. This gave us a taste of what we might focus on for...

Robare, I bought my last batch of glue (164 gram) from Bjorn Industries, Inc. in Charlotte, NC. You can visit their web page at http://www.bjorn,net. The phone number is 704-364-1186. Talk to Eugene Thordahl if you have any questions. Prices vary according to the amount ordered, with the minimum ord...

I was browsing the newspapers in and around New York and came upon his obituary.

I spent a short while today looking over the shoulder of Noel Weber and John Studden as they prepared sample pieces for the upcoming Ten-Ten-Ten workshop. Very nice indeed. It is always a pleasure to watch these master artisans at work. For any of you who will be attending the workshop, I'm sure you...

Vance...I was just teasing Larry. I get to see John, Larry and Tony when they put in an appearance here in Boise. As for the Letterville site, I used to go there and then I had password problems. I emailed Barb and could never get it resolved so I no longer visit the forum. I did enjoy it when I had...

There's another forum? Guess it had to happen eventually. Larry, what forum are you teasing the folks with your fine work? Care to divulge their site?

Dang, she's a clockwise kinda gal for me. No changes after watching for a few minutes.

Dennis

Sheesh, everyone is bundled up like they are in the Arctic. What happened, the temperature dip down to 60 degrees F? Come back up to Boise where it's brisk and there is fresh snow on the ground.

Dennis

I was at the Boise workshop...for about 90 seconds. Beautiful work was being done by all in attendance. The atmosphere was so intense that I had to leave. Fully focused artisans. I haven't been back there since the workshop so I don't know how the finished projects turned out. I've heard rumors abou...

I'm sure Billy Blake is good with a hammer...but is he this good. Check out the video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VElzSJ4Ig-E.

The following is a cut 'n' paste from the Cutting Edge Glass forum. I am not the seller, but I thought someone here might have an interest in the items listed: "I have listed on ebay (4) Paasche Dual Head Silvering Guns, the cost is $100 each. If you dont need one but know someone that might em...

Erik,
Looks like each building has some signage of some sort. It also looks like they are all vacant buildings. Hey, I'm just guessing here. Let us know so we can get some sleep.

Dennis

Kelly, you folks really did a grand job on that project. I'm sure you are glad it is behind you. What's next on the agenda?

Dennis

Dang, Sally, you're far better than your cohort gives you credit for being. I'm just proud to say I know you. Uh, you failed to say what the awards were, exactly. I congratulate you on whatever awards you received. Now I think I'll go watch "Once upon a time in the West." Dennis City of Tr...

Now that is one fine looking chair back. You do good work for a Californian. Now, the Englishman, I think he won't be racing with you on these projects. A man needs to have a cup of tea and a few biscuits to build up his strength for quality gilding. I can't be sure what those beans and ribs are doi...

Two years plus a couple of days since this thread has seen a post. I believe the tutorial is worth another look. Sure turned out nice. The folks at Machine should be proud.

Dennis

Ahh, Larry, would you be trying to get the Englishman to regress in his skill level. Nay, I think not. He is so skilled with them punties that it's scary...not to mention all the other skills that he has perfected over the years. Me, I got a Dremel tool that we could do some punties with. Maybe not ...

Must be time to lodge a complaint with his local congressman or senator. The squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Dennis

Danny,
That is some very nice work. How will the signs be used? I would think that was an enjoyable project. Enough work to keep your interest, but not enough to bore you. I hope you and the Mrs. are doing well.

Dennis

Danny, thanks for the help. I do have a Paypal account and the funds have been sent to Jeremy with my thanks for his great work. I know there are a lot of folks who read this forum on a regular basis, myself included. Heck, I'm not even in the sign trade, but I'm willing to add to the collection pla...

Mike and Danny, Thank you for the reply and explanation. Mike, I did copy and paste the link to Jeremy and it took me to a site that required a password. I'm more than willing to chip in to assist in covering the cost of his efforts if I only knew how to send the funds to him. I thought that the lin...

I just noticed in the "Who's on line" section that myself, Google {Bot}, and 1 guest were browsing. Are these the "bots" that give us problems here on the forum? I'm a bit short on computer savvy, so I did a quick search for Google Bot and found some info on the use of bots. Denn...

Tony, you are correct on the ISGG dates. I visited with Noel yesterday and he confirmed those dates with me. He has several participants signed up already, so don't hesitate to contact him. For those who don't have his shop number, you can reach him at 208-336-2769.

Kent,

The address on the package for Jorgensen Laboratories is 1450 N. Van Buren Avenue, Loveland, CO. 80538. I bought a couple of rolls about a year ago so I hope this information still holds true.

Dennis

Scooter, Here in Boise we have a farm supply store called D & B Supply. In their veterinary supply section, they sell JorVet 1lb rolls of cotton batting. Noel Weber told me about this place so I felt it was a good lead. The product ID is J197 with a company name of Jorgensen Laboratories in Love...

Ahh, a chip off the old block. Her project came out very nice. Did she receive a grade on it yet? Hey, it was nice to see you and Larry at the workshop, even though you both stayed in the executive suite most of the time. Take care...Dennis p.s. Brooke asked if you had worn your "Sally" bo...

Regarding the Miss Chapman incident, there was a great deal of confusion regarding workshops that were to be held in California and Idaho. She made an error when she said that Dave Smith Chapman would be conducting the workshops. It was her first post in that forum and with the last names appearing ...
