This weekend the Tamworth Woodturners club is holding their annual Festival Of Wood.
They are a senior group of guys who do really good turnings of all sorts. There is a lot of stuff available for sale as well as demonstrations on turning and bandsawn boxes. The atmosphere is very friendly with blokes too willing to chat about how they do things.
Micheal Mogy was there with a great array of his ware (Hardware For Creative Finishes) as well as South East Wood Turning Supplies with his tour bus converted to a mobile shop.
The complex also is home to the local Lapidary group and Ladies stuff -spinning and weaving etc.
We went there yesterday to have a look around. The women folk were chatted to by very enthusiastic sewers of all types while I and my brother were able to take in the blokey bits.
All in all we had a good time and thanks to the organisers for putting on a great Festival.
