Membership?

bzavitz | Posted in General Discussion on June 1, 2006 12:13pm

So how do I join as a member of the Fine Homebuilding group? I go to “Update Profile,” click on “Membership,” but the only option presented is FineWoodworking.

    Uh oh, you are in the right place

    ...just stay away from that button, don't ever touch it again.....:)

    Breaktime is the forum for Fine Homebuilding, and membership is free... sort of,
    if, after perusing the topics, you want to get your political nose out of joint, you will need to request access to the Tavern ......where it sometimes gets a bit , um, rowdy

    .

    Get ahold of Gunner he is the official treasurer of BT, he will hook ya right up for a nominal fee. Others might have told you it's free, Gunner will be soon executing executive privilege on these yahoo's.

    I think he only takes cash, or certified funds, he's kinda skid-iss about taking checks from contractors.

    Anyways welcome and enjoy.

      after I get my cut....Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming<!----><!----><!---->

      WOW!!! What a Ride!<!----><!---->

      Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!

      Funny thing--I sent Gunner my membership fee--only had a bank check for a thousand and he never sent me the change---Well maybe I should just wait a little while longer--after all this is the Internet and if it is on here it must be TRUE!!!!!Mike"Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while" Mitremike c. 1990" I reject your reality and substitute my own"
