It Cost WHAT !!!!???
I met with Kerry from Frank Miller Lumber yesterday. He had good news and bad news. Good news- they have decent supplies of most hardwoods. Bad news- it's going to cost us!!! Domestic plywood? Very limited supply (so much for bookcases...) Baltic Birch plywood from Scandinavia/Russia? None until Fall....maybe! (So much for my new CNC machine.....).I was hoping the skyrocketing prices in the construction lumber market, about 400% over last year, would not affect the hardwood market and my customers. Though the price increase is not as severe as 400%, it is steep and unfortunately not stable.
Well, at least I can take my mask off....sometimes....
COACHING AVAILABLE
Finally, after many encouraging emails and phone calls, I have launched a coaching program. Not the same as a classroom setting, coaching does offer many benifits to those who don't want the time and expense of travel, don't need a 6-hour class to find the answer to a 15-minute question, or simply can't attend an in-person class.Using our smartphones, Zoom, Skype and email I will answer all your woodworking and other questions or walk you through a project. Bob from Pittsburgh is making great progress on a wood canvas canoe restoration. Julie from Indianapolis got her husband a 2-hour session for his birthday....opps! Use your time all at once or break it up into many small sessions. $45 per 60 minute session. Visit my store for more information.
