> HI IM LOOKING FOR ANYONE WHO HAS A INSTERST IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS
Greetings Lord Harold,
I'm not sure from this whether you are interested in starting some
sort of formal guilds, just looking to correspond with people with
similar interests or looking for general info on these topics.
If the latter, there are files on most of these subjects in the
Florilegium. See my sig line below for the address if you've never
been there. For instance, here are a few files which occur to me:

> 1. TUMBLING/VINTING
I'm not sure I see a connection between tumbling and vinting, unless
the former is what you do if you do too much of the latter.
For the latter, check the various files in the BEVERAGES section such
as:

I hope this gives you some info to start from.
If anyone has written any how-to articles or history-of articles on
these subjects, I'd love to consider them for the Florilegium, for
just such inquiries. These would be good articles for apprentices to
consider writing to show they know the subject or to begin
researching a subject with. After all, I do accept updates as you
learn more about a subject. (hint, hint, Laurels :-) )
