    Default Canberra Wood Show - Get together(s)

    Ok then all, its a couple of weeks away yet but who's going on what days? I will probably be there on Sat morning and then around to the MTB world championships in the afternoon. Anyone who might be there at the same time want to meet for a coffee around 10(ish)?

    Incase you miss it... here's a great deal from Ubeaut too

    Hey, Im not sure yet. Maybe around for a cuppa - may also head over to the MTB Champs as well. All too far ahead for this sort of detailed planning

    hell... if I get one hand on a domino I will have a grin on my face... might have to wear the trusty ubeaut hat there too

    Guess that means I will be the guy with two domino's, a big grin and a black & yellow hat

    I happened to be over that way this morning so I dropped in. Seems a bit bigger than last year, mostly the same sort of exhibitors though. Some of the Wood guild stuff on display is outstanding.

    I managed to picked up the Woodbuyers guide. I did notice an area for Woodwork Forum members to meet? I assume it was this forum? There was tea and coffee there but no-one else. (Its over the back if your looking - next Jim Carrolls stuff)

    Anyway have fun and goodluck.

    The Fein mob had a good deal on bundle packs of sandpaper, blades and scrapers (meant to grab one on the way out but forgot)

    Cheers

    So really sorry guys i haven't had a chance to get onto the forum - been really busy. Just had a forum member come to the front desk and thank us for the meeting point at the Canberra Show. Show going really well with good crowds today - and the sun has come out!! Got talking to some of the visitors yesterday - they have travelled some mighty distances to get here. One man and his wife had left a 3.30am to make sure they got to the show for opening - they did!! Our first client yesterday morning to ticket counter was at 8.15 (show opens 10.00am) told me he had to be first in as every year another woodworker gets in before him and gets all of the best buys from Trend............checked up with him on the floor around 10.30 and he was really happy - his planned had worked and he was buying up!!!

    Namtrak if you want me to go and collect the bits and pieces from Fein - let me know and i can do so for you.

    If you haven't got to the show get try and come down tomorrow we have a great Fathers Day competition running - go into win $500 worth of Timber Shopping Dollars to spend on the show floor.

    Talk soon
    Liz
