paid seminars / woodworking shows

[Mark Chybowski]

Just wondering if anybody has attended the new paid seminars they have at the shows. The price is a bit steep so I wondering if anybody took them and could give me the lowdown before the Show hits Milw.

Michael Fortune's half-day bandsaw seminar was definitely worth its cost at "The Woodworking Show" a year or two ago. He had lots of practical tips for getting better results. His thoughts on alignment and setup are a little outside of the norm, but well-reasoned, with good examples. His seminar included non-bandsaw tips related to applications of resawn wood (laminations, smoothing resawn surfaces, etc.).
