Made it to Des Moines! Had a great start this evening. We began with a short session on useful knots, larkshead,prusik and slip knot with examples of uses for each.Oh, and some decadent chocolate cake, thanks Connie!
Donna Shenk showed the group how to quickly cut out the pieces for an 8 ft Rok using a gridded board, rulers, and a rotary cutter. A comparison of preferences of scissors and other cutting tools followed. I'm looking forward to trying out some tools tomorrow that aren't currently in my inventory.
Great start for the weekend! Looking forward to more great sharing of ideas tomorrow.
