It will be my first time at the Perth Wood Show which is this weekend. I will be there with a star studded cast from Vermec; Guilio, Enzo and John Scarfe. I hope to catch up with a few Westerners who I only know as names on a forum.

They usually put on a great show.
BUT.......There is just too much temptation to buy even more tools, timber and burls.:U
Hope to see you there Brendan.

Good luck with the show. Hope you convert many people to wood turning.

Just a pity it's in the west and not at the Melbourne show, which no longer caters to the turning fraternity.

I met Brendan today. I bought some Crushgrind pepper grinder mechanisms from him, which I had never seen over here, and had a chat about his YouTube videos.
He's a great guy with a great sense of humour. Drop in and see him. He's easy to chat with and his talent is awesome.

Yes, I do have some photo's.
Only what was in the competition & display by members of WAWA & their affiliated groups.
BUT...have updated Windows 10 & it has stuffed up the WiFi & now I can't download them.
If & when I get it sorted I will post them.

Best Wood Show in Oz! Really well organised and the organizers are'nt out to rip everyone off. Plenty of people through the door and a great buzz. I enjoyed chatting and catching up with all you Westerners. And Perth is a beautiful city! I will be back.

Hey Brendano,
It was my pleasure to meet you and have a chat, yes the show is pretty good, but us regulars have noticed a reduction in size over the years, but like Guilio said nothing like the way the East Coast shows are getting smaller.
Keep working on SWMBO and come on over for a road trip

We are both very keen so it would be good to do some demos while we're there.
