Greetings Fellow Carvers

After being on hiatus from carving for over a year, I've sharpened up my tools and am once again offering an on-line carving class.

Manhattan Santa
Great for Beginning Carvers
4 week class/$40
begins Wednesday, January 16, 2008

visit http://www.cyndijoslyn.com/classes/manhattan.html for all the details

I also offer free "Carving 101" courses in my "On-Line Classroom" about carving basics.

Thanks and happy carving!

Hi Lonnie

It is truly good to be back in the carving world. I know my site is horribly stale......and as we speak I am in the process of a complete site re-design.

I hope to have it up within the next couple of weeks.....

I will have another online carving class starting around May 1.

In between all of this I am moving next week from Albany, OR to Idaho Falls, ID.

So I have a full plate.

Please consider signing up for my mailing list and I will keep you appraised of the progress of my site.

May your carving be joyful!

Just took a look at your new web site and I must say that it looks excellent! You put as much work in your site as you do your carvings! Very nice! I'm sure the class will be excellent! Good luck on getting settled in to your new home and I hope to take a class from you in the near future!

Hi Blake

Thanks for the nice comments on my web site. It certainly was a challenge. The whole time I kept telling myself........I am a woodcarver not a webmaster. But I guess you gotta do what you gotta do to get 'er done.

Joyful carving!

Looks great! Did you design it yourself or did you have someone do it for you? If you designed it yourself, do you mind if I ask what program you used??

I designed the web site using Web Studio software. I looked into Go Live and Dreamweaver but the learning curve was way more than I wanted to take on. Web Studio is basically drop and drag. Just up my alley. Cost about $170 I think, but you can test drive it for up to a month before you buy. They have a very helpful users forum and very knowledgable folks who surf it. They helped me a lot and got me over the hump when I was about to throw in the towel.

I have to tell you, it was never my intention to do my own web site, but my previous webmaster disappeared on me and left me with a very stale site that I had no way of updating. I decided I would never put myself at the mercy of a webmaster again.........so ya gotta do what ya gotta do to get 'er done.

Joyful carving!

All I can say is your previous class was time well spent for me. I'm sure your next one will be of the same high standard.
