Title: Time off for the holiday
Post by: mhof86 on December 03, 2014, 11:16:32 am
With the holidays coming up I have some extra time off work. I am wondering if there is anyone in my area that wouldn't mind a beginner shadowing them for a day in the shop. I live in Petersburg, MI and wouldn't mind taking a drive to learn a thing or two. I know it is a busy time of the year but if anyone is local I would really appreciate any help I can get.  Thanks.

I'm in the opposite boat, just found out we'll be having less time off for Christmas. I'm all the way up in Bay City, and don't have a 'shop' plus, I don't really have a lot of experience. However, if you ever feel the urge i'd be happy to have you and share tips with one another.

Petersburg is south of Ann Arbor by maybe 15-20 minutes. Jackson thats a bummer. I was fortunate enough to find out I have 40+ hours I have to use by the end of the year or I lose them. So vacation here I come. Plus it helps take some of the stress off and I will enjoy the family time alot more.

Yeah, our equipment took a turn for the worst and we aren't getting production numbers. If we can turn it around we may be able to get a few of our days back. Are either of you guys in the MLA? I just joined up and am looking forward to some of the gatherings

Michigan Longbow Association - they put on the Great Lakes Longbow Invitational. I've been itching to go to it since I learned of it a couple years ago when I was still living in New York.
