I'm heading to the Houston Woodworking Show this weekend. Any suggestions as to a class or seminar that has proven to be really good in the past. Also, do I need to sign up for classes prior to arriving at the show? Don't know how fast they fill up . . . ?
Thanks in advance . . . Steve
Where in Houston does this take place? Thanks

I need a couple of "filials" made (I think they're called). About 3/4" diameter and a couple of inches long. I'd pay for your time if you can help me. Joe

The Joe entity posted thusly:
heh! That's 'finials', but it's a lot closer than the guys on router workshop that called them 'fennels'. I though I'd tuned to a wood-oriented cooking show.
The older fella also cuts 'tenets'.
Thanks for the correction, I'll add that to my word list. And I'll include 'filial' since I had to look that one up too.
Anyhow, I don't guess I've run into a Houston wood-turner that can help me, just wordsmiths.

I call 'em tall, fancy knobs.. *g*
If you can't find someone local, most of us would probably be willing to help you out by mail..
You might also check sites such as this one:
You asked for Houston, but as Mac mentioned, given the size, the world's available by post.
Takes longer, though.
Excuse me, but what happened to the Houston Woodworking Show topic . . .?

Actually Steve, I thought it played out well. Four posts on topic isn't a record, but it isn't bad. Sometimes the thread is hijacked after the first post when someone has soemthing really cute to say.

Thanks, Steve - packing for my first woodworking show . . .I'm excited . . . packed good shoes, comfortable clothes & several credit cards . . . even bringing the wife who always says " buy it if you think it will help you build projects" . . . .
The Gulf Coast Wood Turners club will have a booth at the show. There will be a couple dozen people there who can turn what you need.
