I'll be doing some ShopBot training this Thursday (4/14) at 7:30 PM.  Cost will be $20 (funds will go towards materials and ShopBot equipment).  I don't have a set limit for participants, but please RSVP on this thread so I can estimate attendance.

I have a few projects that will use up full sheets of plywood.  My plan is to have each attendee setup and cut an individual piece out of the larger project.  This will force participants to learn how to home the machine and predict where it is going to go, otherwise the larger project will fail.

I will try to setup a larger screen so that it will be easier to watch others as they setup.

The class will go at least until everyone has setup and run the machine at least once.  If time allows I would like to continue to take turns cutting parts until the project is done.

Glad everyone enjoyed it.  The cuts took longer than I anticipated so I still have two and a half sheets of plywood designated for the workstation in the wood shop.  Does anyone have any suggestions for a place to store plywood?  I'm going out of town next week so I won't be able to finish the cuts for awhile.
