These classes are a lot of FUN!  Carl and I love to meet you and share quality time together.  You learn a lot in these classes.  They give you such a jump start in techniques used with the high speed tools, bits that work best in each medium, at which angles.  How to market yourselves if your hope is to make an extra income or enhance your small business.  These classes truly cut years off your learning time and confidence in the ability you have to create some truly beautiful art.
If you do not already own a High Speed Engraving tool, one will be provided for you in the class.

•    Learn all about your High Speed Engraving Equipment.
•    Learn which bits to use for the best results in several mediums.
•    Learn techniques that save time / learn complete use of applique film.

•    Maximum of 4 students per class to ensure you receive plenty of 1 on 1 training.
•    If an extra income is your goal, we will give you lists of suppliers to get the best deals for your engravables. 

In this Class, you will be engraving/carving 8 hours a day for 3 full days.   You will complete (13) projects in this class.  The mediums you will be working in are:

                                    WOOD / GLASS / EGG / METAL

After this class you will have some beautiful projects (that YOU created) to take home with ou, plus a world of confidence to begin your High Speed Engraving / Carving adventures.  
Lunch is included in this class and a LOT of great companionship and wonderful memories.
We hope to see you soon.


January 28 & 29, 2 day wood class using Coyote Stencil Shop     $250.00
        - Maximum of 4 students
See the picture to the right here of our granddaughter from Alaska.  This picture was scanned into the Coyote Stencil Shop program and within 5 minutes I had a perfect stencil pattern to begin carving a beautiful plaque of Clara.   This software is fantastic and very easy to use.  It truly was developed for the ease of the user.   In this class you will learn:

•    scanning your picture (the one you brought to class ** and emailed to Carl ahead of time) into the Coyote Stencil Shop program.
•    You will learn to easily create a carving ready Stencil of that picture
•    We will then go to the studio and you will be taught to create a beautiful plaque just as I did of my granddaughter.

I believe that the Coyote Stencil Shop software is the greatest software for carvers and engravers that has come along in years. 
These classes are 8 hours a day.  Lunch is included so we can stay inside here chatting about carving and engraving during our lunch break.  Hope to see you there.
