Okay, first post... here goes!

I'm really psyched about the success of the Rocket Oven DVD campaign, and congrats to Paul and crew for making it happen!

I'm going to build my own oven, and help at least one other Boston area Permie build his... so, I'm thinking why not gather some more folks and hold a workshop!
I've got a well equipped shop, and lots of experience making (blacksmithing, welding, machining, woodworking, carpentry,...).

I'm thinking of Spring 2019, near Boston, and maybe room for 6-10 people?
I will build my oven ahead of the workshop, so there's a functioning model on-site, plus we can BAKE STUFF to eat! :-p

Once I see some interest and work out the details, definitely will be posting about this over there...

Give a thumbs up to this post if you are in the Boston area and would attend a workshop about Rocket Ovens.

Give a thumbs up to this post if you are NOT near Boston, and wish there were workshops about Permie stuff near you.

Give a thumbs up to this post if you ARE near Boston, and you would like to attend workshops about making OTHER Permie stuff.
(solar dehydrator, beehives, welding or blacksmithing, etc...)
