I miss teaching in Antwerpen. Had such good times there in your great city.

I just got signed up last week for this class!
I joined the forum in march and have been reading all the posts almost daily since then. I have been slowly getting together a setup put together. And am really exited to get started. I can't wait for the class.
I still need to book my hotel for the class, out of all the suggested hotels that grs suggests does anyone that is familiar with Emporia have any suggestions.
Thank you all for the imput.
And Sam I am really looking forward to being able to pick your brain for a week! I will try not to not to drive you crazy with to many questions!
Can't wait,
Trevor Fruchey

Thanks for the hotel info.
I know that grs supplies all of the tools on the bench that are needed, and that there are laser-marked practice plates provided, but is there anything I should try to bring with me for the class or is it just show up and and be ready to learn?
Thanks for all the info and I can't wait!
Trevor

I (and many class mates) stayed at Candlewood - has kitchenette and "super" wal-mart right across the street.
I liked to cook some of my own food and bring my lunch to class.
I brought a small tool box but didn't need most of it. A sharpie marker and 10X loupe were handy though.
Enjoy the class -worth every penny.

Hi Eric,
It looks like I am your neighbor. I live next town over, in Louisville, Co. Maybe we should get together for a coffee or beer sometime.
