I just got my catalog a few nights ago.  They send them out early to
previous students.  Brian Boggs will be teaching a one week class in
ladder back chair making September 17-22.

I plan to take "Decorative Details with Garrett Hack", a weeklong class
in dressing up wood with inlays, moldings, etc, that includes making some
of the necessary tools.  I'm also going to take a class in carving, but
I can't decide between a one week class with either Bill Belisle or Allan
Breed or just a one day class in "Carving a Shell" with Allan Breed.

There's some great stuff for the hand tool buff in this year's schedule.
A class in "Hand Skills with Mario Rodriguez" that'll have you planing,
spokeshaving, and sawing for 5 days.  Toolmaking with Yeung Chan, Windsor
Chair Making with David Wright, Hand Cut Dovetailed Blanket Chest with
Kelly Mehler, and a whole slew of veneering classes.  John Wilson will
even be there to teach making Shaker boxes (although it'd be cheaper to
take it at Tiller in Michigan).  Thomas Lie-Nielsen will even show up 
for a couple days to explain the virtues of selling your first born for
a bunch of his planes.
