I just accepted a temporary assignment to go work for 10 months in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, starting in April. I won't be able to bring any equipment with me, so my knifemaking willl be put on hold until I get back. So...
Are there any Calgary area makers that could take me in so that I can get a fix once in a while?
Are there any uniquely Canadian materials that I should try to acquire while I'm there?
Are there any knife related events or places that are must-visits before I come back to Texas?
I have to be making SOMETHING, so are there any ancillary skill sets that I should work to acquire that 1) don't take a lot of equipment 2) can be done inside an apartment when it's too cold to breathe outside and 3) that can add to my knife making repertoire when I can finally get back to it?
