a marketing strategy, as well as a scheme for reproducing the work if the product
takes off. At this symposium, you’ll hear from woodworkers and designers who
have succeeded, and were featured in the Custom Woodworking Business Woodworking Inventors’ article series. Various presenters will explain: - Product
development – steps from original idea to reproducible offering - Production –

Damage to your project is almost unavoidable at some level. It can occur in the
white but especially after it has been finished. You either fix that damage in shop
or build a new component depending on your level of skills of repairing. If damage
occurs after the object is installed, replacement becomes more costly, so onsite
repair is the only other option. Repairing nicks, dents, scratches, nail holes, gouges and other surface blemishes will be covered. You need to learn the techniques
of filling the void, how to color that filler with color matching skills, create a faux

task if you don’t know the basics, unless you have a serious amount of hours
observing your efforts. Even those who are using the new computerized system
of color matching or even using photo spectrometers often still need the human
eye to perfect a color. Here are some of the topics we will go over in this session.
What color or colors does it need, why does it need that color and how much color
will it take to correct it?, Hue, value, chroma are the building blocks of creating
color, Primary, secondary, tertiary are the corner stone’s of creating color, Multistep coloring finishing schedules including dyes, stains, glazes and toners color
matching becomes even more critical, Color on color is serious color matching
and Learn to participate in the results and not just observe them. If you guess

ONLY IN ATLANTA
DINE ON
THE BELTLINE
The Atlanta BeltLine, a 22-mile-loop project
featuring green space, trails and transit just
steps from Downtown, connects Atlanta’s intown neighborhoods and provides access to
some of Atlanta’s most well-known eateries.
Walkers or cyclists can hop off the path for
a taste at one of Atlanta’s top steakhouses.
In Old Fourth Ward, enjoy a dry-aged steak
for two at Kevin Rathbun Steak or join a
game of bocce at TWO urban licks. The
restaurant, home of “fiery American cooking,”
boasts an outdoor patio with a panoramic
view of the Atlanta skyline and live blues
five nights a week.
In the city originally known as Terminus,
thanks to its position on the Western &
Atlantic Railroad, visit H. Harper Station for
a throwback to Atlanta’s historic
past. Located in Reynoldstown,
H. Harper Station features modern interpretations of classic
cocktails and Southern staples.
A melting pot for Southern culture, Parish Foods & Goods
in the Old Fourth Ward sits on
the BeltLine. For comfort food,
check out The Shed at Glenwood’s three-course Sunday
Supper, situated right on the
BeltLine in Grant Park.
When you are in Atlanta,

stroll on the BeltLine,
and let your taste buds
guide you through the city’s
charming neighborhoods.
