Mini turnfest - Melbourne, Sept 16
Well there's still plenty of good wood to turn and David's keen to do a small pedestal table out of his wattle.
So all forum turners and would-be turners are invited.
We'll start with turning the pedestal so those handy at between-centres turning will be fed, feted and ... well, you know
Rodent and Crazyscew have kindly offered to bar-b-que some snags (not a bad idea given my performance last time ).
Another portable lathe would work well as we found with Scooter's last time.
This time will be pretty informal. Kick off at 10am and let's see what we can produce. Beginners most welcome. Onlookers, brains trust and yarners ditto.
Donation to cover catering. The fireplace is still in place and there's firewood left over from last time.
RSVP by the 13th by PM so we can organise catering and let you know where to go ... again, in Reservoir, 10 mins from the Ring Road.
Before that, please let me know what your interest is or what you are happy to demo or show and tell. I'll try to match them up. No need to be shy ... no-one else will be
We could even run a sanding and finishing competition
.Cheers, Ern

Looking forward to it. Another chance to share information and ideas..... Great. Along these lines, Rodent, if you are coming along would you mind bringing along your 13mm replaceable tip bowl gouge. I'd like to see it and possibly take some measurements (purely to see if it will fit in my tool bag of course .

I have been given executive authority to attend, so I will be there..
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
