Timber Framers Guild Forums General Conferences Western Conference 2009 Roll-Call

23rd Western Conference
March 26-29, 2009
Sunriver, Oregon

I'll be there.

Topics that interest me so far...

Making the Most of Your Topping Out Parties--Leif Calvin
Restoring the 1660 Brown House--Rudy
The Evolutionn of a Timber Framer into a Complete Design/Build Firm--Collin Beggs
Veteran Voices--Bill Keir (awesome dude, helped start the UK timber framing revival)
Apprenticeship Forum
3D Extreme Wood Bending--Chris Mroz

I'll be there, along with all my joiners: Lefty, Patrick and Shaun.

Unfortunately there's no way we can make it out there.
We've been stricken by that Italian disease... 'Fundsalow'.

I'd be eternally grateful to anyone who can video the 3D Extreme Wood Bending for me.

Sounds like some nice topics. I will not be present. The front cover of scantlings left me hanging. I would like to see A video of that as well. 5 minutes prep time and 1 minute to bend, maybe he is using powerful magnets.

I'll be there for a pre con w/s and most of the day on Friday, then its off to Portland for a wedding. The whole family-wife and 3 kids ages 5 mo, 4 and 13, are driving up from central CA on Sun/Mon and trying to get a couple days at Mt. bachelor beforehand. Anyone else going early?
