The race to the AWTEX dead line.
I've got til 8.30 Tuesday 10th of June to get the last bits finished. Apparently I'm not the inly one who turns up with the glue only just dry.
Have my bowl done.
Think my platter is stuffed. Should I persevere?
And I now hate the lidded box I made. Could I start again?
Who else is in a similar predicament.

Hi Anne Marie, Last year I was concerned that the packing would be stuck to the piece on the way down, it was that close. This year I was finished two months ago. . But I will admit I made four pieces until I got the one I liked. There are two other pieces nearly finished but my dead line has long passed so they won't be there. Bugger ain't it?

It sounds like a some days at the factory start one thing then the mad dash with a different job! Also do it with show entries down to the last minute!

Good luck TL but I really don't think you need luck as your work stood up pretty well last year.

My finger tips have been worn to bleeding point but I have just managed to get the first coat of lacquer on my 3 pieces (5pm Sunday). 2nd and 3rd coats tomorrow...plenty of time before I need to drive to Melb on Tues. to hand them in. Nothing like leaving things to the last minute!!!
