What a great time! The guy in the shorts and t-shirts is Felix Marcano from Puerto Rico. Joe A, you forgot to mention FOOD FOOD FOOD! Someone in the group may put her chiesels up for sale on e-bay and buy some like Joe C's. Thanks again and Felix have a great trip. The recipe for the rolls will be coming soon.

Looks like a fun meet, wish I could have made it! Also looks like Felix adapted well to the local weather. How long did it take him to get back inside after the photo?

Kathy and I made it back to Ontario late last night. Went to see the Norman Rockwell Museum after we left your place Joe.
Thanks a lot for all the hospitality and advice. This idea of chiseling is brand new to us. Joe taught me to always "cut corners" and how to chisel the client! We are going to give our very first chiseled signs a place of honour in our shop. Right after we get them painted.
We took another picture of the group right after the one Joe posted. It didn't turn out well because Felix was shaking to much!

They came in a snow storm and warmed my heart and home......
Sometimes you wonder if it's worth the effort....and 3 days later, you have your answer.
Special thanks to Sign Foam and 1 SHOT for your generous donation of materials as well as Design Board, Everwood and Precesion Board for donations for my workshops past. They quantity of materials allow everyone to be loose and not afraid to mess up! It was interesting to feel how difrently each reacted to the diffrent tools and techniques.
I can't wait to see the rest of Joe's pics....I'm sure they will tell a better story than I can.
For those of you who think you don't have a space big enough for a meet....try hosting just a small one.....IN THE DEAD OF WINTER! The numbers will be just right.....
Thanks again everybody for everything you brought to the Chisel Jam!
Joe, Makin Chips and Havin Fun!

Glad to hear everyone made it back safely. I'm going to email the photos to Joe A. so he can post them on his site. I gotta go, my kid wants a bath. Talk to youse later!
Pierre, I'm looking into going to your meet. Hope I can make it!
