Reading the HAM operators thread got me thinking about how each of use should learn different skills and share the ones we have.
I think it would be great to have our experts in their fields do a two to four part class/study group in their subject. Example: A four part class on HAM radios on Mondays for a month. How about a three or four part class on Saturdays on the basics of blacksmithing?
This is an idea that could easily be folded into the MSGs and most classes could be held a public libraries (barring blacksmithing, etc...), which allow you to use their conference rooms for free.
Some ideas for classes would be:
HAM radio
Basic electrical theory and generators
Knife making and basic blacksmithing
Basic first aid thru trauma
Solar panels and battery banks
Brewing (in four weeks I can teach each person and have them walk away with a case of brew they make themselves)
I am sure there is much, much more. All we need is each person to step forward and be willing to teach what they know.
I am not set up for it right now but I will be willing to teach blacksmithing, knife making, and brewing. Who else has skills they are willing to share through giving classes.
