Great show

Submitted by A. Weaver on 23 December, 2009 - 14:56.

This is an excellent podcast episode. I haven't weaved since my youth, but it shows just how much tech can be involved in hand-weaving. I'm still trying to visualize the exotic fibers that Sharon used which have high tensile strength but far less shearing strength.

There are a couple of easy ways for the weaver with only a dialup to enjoy podcasts. One is to use iTunes and start the download at the end of the day just before going to sleep. Even the longest weavecast podcast should be downloadable in a couple of hours. Another way is have a friend download the show and copy it onto a USB memory stick.

Hello, I have dial-up and am not able to listen to podcasts.  I read that Laura Fry had posted a transcript here, but I don't see it.  Thanks for your help.

If you click on the Listen to WeaveCast item in the menu to the left, it opens up a submenu that contain a link Read Transcripts  All the transcripts that Laura has created (which are a lot, thank you Laura!) are in there.

Hope that helps!

Repeats on Event calendar

Submitted by Terryech on 3 December, 2009 - 15:39.

Syne, I can't find any other way to contact you. I wondered if the new event calendar allows repeats that are not on a specific day or interval? Our guild meets the 4th Tuesday of each month so every 4 weeks won't work and the date changes each month.

Thanks,

Terry
