Insights from the yesteryear at Shelter Institute

Shelter will be one of the exhibitors at the New England Woodworking and D.I.Y. Show in West Springfield, MA, January 14-16.
Tickets are $10 for adults and can be purchased online. Children under 15, active duty police, fire, and military get in free.
The list of exhibitors includes Lee Valley & Veritas tools, Kreg, Delta, Bosch, Bessey Tools (more clamps!), and many more. There will be lots of free stuff, tools on display, and discount buying opportunities.
The show also offers an impressive list of educational seminars. One of the seminars, "Woodworking in High Definition," is offered by Bob Settich, author of Built-Ins (in Taunton's Build Like a Pro series). He will talk about cabinetmaking details, shop tricks, and jigs. Maybe he'll get me motivated to start the built-in bookshelf/window seat I've promised my wife for years.
We're very happy to be part of such an impressive lineup. If you can make your way there, please stop by and see us.
Since 1974, Shelter Institute has crafted hundreds of timber frames while teaching thousands of students sustainable building practices. From courses and quality tools to custom design-build services, we help you think, build, and live well.
