Hey guys, I would really love to get to Keith's for an ADA class. Is anyone else on here interested in on sometime in the near future? I know the last one was about a month ago, but it was very bad timing for me unfortunately.

I would be glad to offer another ADA class when we can get at least six people to attend.

Anyone interested in my Ada session please post in this thread and we will try to find a date that fits everyone's schedule.

I will have an announcement shortly concerning the next ADA class that will most likely convince those who are sitting on the fence to join us for the next session :)
The maximum number of seats I can accommodate is twelve.

If you're sitting on the fence get off it and go! you won't be sorry. It's well worth it. The experience that Keith tells you about is great. He's a very gracious host.

Ok, I have 1 more to come as well so we're up to 4!

Excellent Ryan.

We will be able to confirm at least three sponsors shortly for the next ADA session which means that the cost to attend will go down and there may be some nice freebies involved.

Rich,

I'm open for suggestions, if you have a schedule that works for you let us know.

We still have plenty of time to get a session in this year.

I'm interested also but dates are the key. First full week and third full week of January and end of the 2nd week are all out for me. Would love to get up there.

Old thread, but I'm definitely interested in attending whenever the next ADA class is. I'm confident I can get a total of 3 to attend. Thanks !!

Glenn,

I am willing to schedule an ADA sign class as long as we can get six people to attend. I can be flexible concerning the dates since I am retired and now work full time in my sign shop.

Thanks Keith for the quick response. I need to check this forum more often. I will see if I can arrange for 6 to attend and let you know. What are the details of the class? Will help me get a few on board. Cost, topics, etc.? Thanks again.

Disregard. I did what I should have before I asked... Used the search feature ;) I found posts of previous ADA classes. They were free, but don't want to assume they will be again. Either way I'm confident I can get 6. Will start working on it tomorrow.

Glenn,


SawMill Creek ADA Training Class:

We cover every aspect of making ADA door signs and Specialty signs for Commercial Buildings from start to finish.

1. Marketing ADA Signs
2. Preparing Project Work Lists and Project Bids
3. Material selection and Design
4. Tools and Equipment
5. Corel Draw Tips and Aaron Koehl's Braille Script
6. Fabrication Techniques
_a. CNC Machining small and large signs.
_b. Painting and Edge Routing Techniques
_c. Laser Engraving ADA and Specialty Signs
_d. Installing Braille and Tactile Text
7. Sign Installation

Note: Each person will receive a DVD that contains drawings and other files that will assist you in making your own ADA signs. The DVD alone is worth the price of admission, it is not for sale.

This is a hands on session so we will make a few signs so you can see the process and the techniques we use from making plaques to installation.

The cost of this session is $250.00 per person and it includes a catered lunch both days, all proceeds will be donated to support SawMill Creek Woodworkers Forums.You can bring a still camera if you like but I prefer we don't videotape or record any presentations. You can bring a writing pad or laptop computer if you feel the need to take notes, we have wireless Internet in my shop. The schedule both days is 10am until 5pm and we will break for lunch from 12 noon to 1pm, a catered lunch will be provided. The session officially ends at 1:30 pm on Sunday but we use the time after lunch to 5pm for general discussion, to answer any specific questions or demonstrate a technique by request.

I use a multitude of processes in my sign shop such as dye-sublimation, sand blasting, welding, etc so we are happy to share anything we know about any additional techniques we use.

Hi Keith,

I managed to round up a solid 3 to attend. I'm willing to pay for the remaining spots out of my own pocket if that is OK with you. Really want to attend your class as soon as possible. Have several reaching out in my area for ADA work and have turned them down as I don't want to take on without having the basics down.

Would like to start discussing potential dates. I'll work my schedule around yours as much as possible. Hopefully you have some availability soon.

Talk to you soon.

Thanks,

Glenn
