    I just found the 2011 conference information and it looks like I missed out on great seminars. I'll be there in June.
    In 2012 I'd like to see routine mainteance best practices, creating patterns from photographs (I know it ain't easy!), the use and creation of sleds, Marketing your products particurly third party web-sites such as etsy.com and ebay.com, as well as DIY web sites. and along with many other posts here, I want to see methods of finishing. Machine sound reduction.Thanks!

    If there's interest, I could present information on security issues related to websites and online shopping carts.

    Smile Gimp Patterns

    This would be an excellent workshop and I would attend. I am trying to learn, but could learn so much more. Hopefully there will be both basic and advanced sessions open to all.

    Default Conference suggestions

    Hopefully, I am placing this reply in the proper place. These are just some of my thoughts for the conference.
    Looking at last years conference agenda I was wondering what the difference between a newbie and a carvoholic is? Being new to the family I would like to consider myself somewhere in between. I would like to attend a basic as well as an advance class on designer, preventive maintenance checks and balances (which show how to disasimble the machine to make adjustments, repairs and put back together without having extra parts remaining), how to make sled & jigs and their uses, how to use gimp or another program to make patterns, and solutions for dust collection other than stopping and restarting the machine every few hours. Maybe there could be a show and tell room setup for others to display their works and or advancements (jigs & sleds) [maybe for sale or not] during the breaks. Another avenue could be morning and evening classes that rotate from day to day so everyone has an opportunity to take both the basic and advanced classes. Thanks John
