277056 Michael Suwczinsky <nicknaylo@g...> 2023‑02‑28 Re: RIP John Wilson
I saw this on the Lost Art Press Blog a little while ago.

John Wilson's teaching came to the Bay Area Galoots by way of Ralph
Brendler, in a big group build at Manny Hernandez's shop many years ago. A
great time was had by all and my own stock of Wilson swaged copper tacks
has dwindled over the years.

The smallest of Shaker Boxes made (000?) holds my ear plugs in the shop and
class is a treasured memory.

Glad to hear the Home Shop will continue.
