Overall, a good class. The instructor was great and the projects were interesting. As always, trying to get through everything was a challenge.
The main project was creating a sample fence piece using mortise and tenon. We made the top and bottom, and the rail pieces, created the mortises and then put different twists on them, then riveted them together.

After that, he showed us how to make leafs and dragon heads. I didn't have time to finish a leaf, but will try the technique again. My first dragon head came out pretty good, but I'd like to make the next one a little cleaner.
