Ice Jig/gear making workshops - any interest?
« on: Nov 01, 2011, 01:22 PM »
So I was just made aware, that there is a small hall in my town that is interested in having monthly community events.  There would be no charge and it would be open to the public.  The hall is in West Barrington.

There would be no real leader, but each workshop would be made up of those who showed up that night.  It might be kind of cool to have someone making ice jigs one month, tip ups another month, other tools/gear another month etc.

No charge and you bring your own materials etc.

Any interest?

If so, what night of the week works best for everyone?

OK.  So it seems like there would be some interest.  What can everyone do?  I can make ice solder jigs.

What special rig, jig, or peice of gear can you make or show others how to make?

I light of the lack of interest, mainly due to the holidays I presume, let's move this into January.  I'll check all availability and will repost under a new thread.

I know that place, but no, it isn't the Legion.  It is the Bay Spring Community Center.  http://www.bsccri.org/
