I'm not sure if I should even reply here, as it would be easy to regard me as nothing more than a shill for John, as he's my good friend, but I'm going to risk it, only because I just looked at the price of this class and I think it's insanely cheap. Here goes...
I drove 600 miles to spend time with John, and it was my explicit intention to learn how he makes handles and guards. After seeing the detail, thoughtfulness and thoroughness which John works, I would personally spend DOUBLE what they're asking for this class to attend it.
Go ahead and label me a shill. I probably am. If you're smart, maybe you'll understand why I'm willing to do this.
Plus, John's giving me seven percent.
Happy as heck to see you doing stuff like this, bud. Total no-brainer.
