HANDS-ON WORKSHOPS
These are not demo-only workshops. You will get your hands dirty and return home with your own project in hand. In addition, you are encouraged to bring along a personal project(s) and Mark will spend some time going over it with you. In a recent class, a student brought a hood scoop he had built for an old drag car from the late ’60s. An accomplished craftsman in his own right, the student was impressed by Mark’s insightful comments. Mark suggested using a straight edge ruler to find the high and low spots in the hood, so they could be worked out without the use of a grinder, keeping them from removing too much metal. This is just one of many examples of our workshops have benefited past students.

STUDENTS – WHERE DO THEY COME FROM?
Students representing all walks of life, from professional to weekend warrior, have participated in past classes. If you have never taken a class before and feel somewhat intimidated, please don’t let that stop you. Many former students have told us they shared that same feeling until attending a session.

CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION
Every student receives a certificate stating he/she has completed a workshop at the end of the session.
