HARTT, DON

Don will be teaching his Fancy Canes again and will do six one-day classes. The students can schedule as many days as they want, from 1 to 6 days. However, he strongly suggests you take at least three days. Out of the classes he's done so far, he has never had anyone complete the project in less than three days. Some of the patterns he installs on the sticks can be done in three days, but there are a lot of patterns that cannot be completed in only three days. Time required for completion is dependent upon the pattern the student chooses. If a student wants to schedule three or more days, the days do not have to be consecutive. Also, if someone signs up and pays for five days but completes their stick in 3 or 4, they can receive a refund for the remaining day(s) they do not need. You will learn how to put on a fancy pattern and how to carve and finish it. After this class you should be able to do your own fancy cane without help from anyone. Extra blanks will be available at a cost of $35 to $80. Tools required: carving knives, gouges, and a background tool which will be available from the instructor for $10.
