Default AWW revamped web site

Yep, they are there. Create a free membership, go to the Video
section, looking in video library and it is the only thing there, a 13
part series. Wonderful stuff, worth the watching.

Someone once posted here a link to free online videos of a Sam Maloof
seminar he gave at some college. While I was not so ever interested in
the swoopy design stuff he does, I watched every one of the videos
enthralled at the cool techniques and the very genuinely nice man and
he had some great stories.

His way with a bandsaw is nothing less than amazing. It changed my
whole understanding of the tool. Of course he kept saying "don't do
this at home" and explained how he just figured this technique out on
his own before anyone told hi it was wrong. Really beautiful to watch
him sculpt pieces. I also leaned some really great techniques watching
those. Can't even really explain them with words easily or I would
try.

Ah ha, found the link to the site. I assume the videos are still
online there somewhere.http://www.woodworkingchannel.com/

Listen buddy, if you're going post something that has to do with
woodworking, at least have the courtesy to mark it "On-Topic" in the
subject line. *Sheesh.

No kiddin'.


Don't you hate a trouble maker?


Just because the election is over, doesn't mean you have to go back to
the old ways of talking about woodworking here.


BTW Steve, I love your rockers.


Did you take the Maloof class or a class from one of his students?
There is a guy that lives north of me that has been making them for
years, and does wonderful work as well.

I have a friend of mine that has taken a rocker building class from
him and told me that the way he cuts, fits, and joins the wood pieces
in his rocker is almost all by scribing and feel.


And unlike most "craftsmen", "artists" or "professionals", Robert
Hensarling is supposed to be one of the nicest individuals you will
ever meet.


Anyway, how many of those have you built?


Just curious...
