Haha...yep...something like this would be cool for over 'here'.....maybe nights/weekends for working stiffs........ Good work tinbender..
I guess I'm getting old, I just call Seattle, Seattle I wouldn't mind doing a class on the coast, but I think it might be a little tuff to move the shop that far
Hi Tinbender, Congratulations on your class. I hope it works out well for you. Teaching is a lot of fun. You might want to post this in the Hamb o Dex portion of the site also. John www.ghiaspecialties.com
Thanks John, yes teaching has been the best job I ever could have ever dreamed of . We need 3 more to sign up to make this class happen. This will be the last time I offer it. Next summer I'll be running a credit class. The students in my program will have first priority, so I doubt there will be room left for anyone else.
I plan on offering some evening classes next winter and spring(I have to pay for my totaly un-HAMBorific "dream car" that I just bought ) They'll be more demonstration, less shop time. Keep an eye out for the ads in the paper, and post here.
