Is This Blog Dead? (or Back to School – College of the Redwoods, Summer 2010)

My last post was a year ago. So much had happened in one year. I completed the mini tansu, participated in Mr. Ma Bing-jian’s Chinese 5-level Bracket System workshop (see TFG’s 2010 Western Conference, switched job, and have been keeping rather busy with work.

That said, I also managed to come back to the College of the Redwoods for Yeung Chan’s workshop on Toolmaking and Machined Joinery. What a treat that was. I learned how to make knives and chisels, Yeung Chan-style, and also built a Chinese Ming stool. More updates on the above activities in the future.

Bob's Chinese stool. My bench - what a mess!

I will make an effort to update the blog more regularly. My goal is one new entry per week.
