that was amazing. i was skeptical about the technology but it was even cooler than live demo's in some ways. since we were watching vids of him working and slide shows he had all of his attention free to answer our questions. the videography/photography was great and it felt personal as he was responding in real time to our comments.

the tech thing, waaay better than i expected. i'm a mactard and it just worked like it was supposed to without problems. out of sixtyish people i think only one guy had an issue.

much love and respect to banjo and to everybody who put this together! i'll be looking forward to future events.

This was great, I totally agree with mer about how questions were answered on a personal level. I asked 3 and all were answered right away.

Glasscraft, $30 was not enough. I'll be attending ALL future webinars.

I felt like he did a good job, I was hopeing for more assembly info though. The helmet was cool but i would have rather seen more of what was done with the tubing he made

Icarus

i am working on my most complex piece to date thanks to that webinar.

hopefully i will have some pics in a few days. that or a lot of glass trash .
