I've been around the site for a little while. Still trying to learn the navigation of it all. My name is Rick. I know, not too creative with the username.

Where/ how are we notified of events and gatherings and how are they created? I live in S.Carolina, so one in North Carolina or Georgia would be ideal for a lot of members, I think.

Where do I find out how to hone? I am looking through the hone section and what I need is real remedial training. I don't even know how to hold the blade on the hone.

I have Lynn's DVD of which I will revisit again and again before attempting to hone anything. I have a barber's hone. I have not yet rec'd it nor used it. Just trying to educate myself on it.

Well, that's me...that's what I'm after at this point. Thanks.
