Welcome, Peter. I had the opportunity several years ago to give a tour of
the Hancock Shaker Village cabinetmaker's shop (I was resident cabinetmaker
at that time & for several years) to Lars Ewo and a dozen or so of his
students from the Carl Malmstens School in Stockholm. I learned a lot from
them. I was very tempted when Lars suggested my coming there to teach.
Having young children extinguished that temptation.

I also gave a tour to a group of retired architects & cabinetmakers from
Denmark. Some of my most valuable memories are of talking to seasoned
European cabinetmakers & those of related trades.

I'm sure that the Galoots on the porch will gain much from your
contributions to the list, especially coming fom the European viewpoint.
