Great, not that I'm under enough pressure now but also feeling responsible for other peoples major purchases. How about you hire one just in case

Are you looking at taking the show to the T&WWW Shows, better yet would be if you could have an hour special separate to your standing series.

I don't know when you plan to start production or if you already have but I'm planning an event for next year which may be of interest to you also.

The invitation is generally as follows

If you want to meet a few from the forum and some from other places who share a passion for Wood Working you may like to check this out.

https://www.woodworkforums.com/f25/ww...2014-a-170839/

At this time it looks like we will have a variety of competent woodworkers there with skills in flat work, wood turning, carving and perhaps milling.
Opportunity to spend one on one with some of these and whoever else is there and willing to share there time and expertise.

The invitation for you and whoever comes - bring some tools, bring some wood (these are optional but desired if possible) you can sell, swap, work with it or just watch others.

Mandatory if you come - a smile, willing spirit, desire to have fun learn and enjoy yourself.

Hope to see you there, if cant make it we'll see you round the forum and who knows maybe at some other event

Take Care

I hope that's a good thing

Now to get more on board, I guess I should be looking for some to campaign for sponsorship

I could just go to Dad's house? Will save my money for tools I "really need" !

We have up graded our TV 3 times for free since all the rellies have been dumping theirs to get big screens an saving them tip fees.

I read somewhere that the ideal viewing distance of an HDLCD tv is 12.375 x the size of the screen measured from the hypotenuse of the isosceles. 80" x 12.375 = a bloody big room....

That's ok (sorry for mega off topic but as a potential poly I'll use the gift of the gab an re-direct) that lobby would work fine for me. I can set up heaps of tools in there and have people come watch me work all they like.

And so .... this too would make a great episode location and I could have a projector and massive screen and show re-runs of the various episodes during the day.

In fact to that I'd like to make a promise. - Read my lips - I'll say it again and again and again 'no new taxes'
Whoops wrong promise, you'll have to give me 6 months to think about that one.

No - here is the promise to fineboxes. If your show is running and I'm in Canberra ill give you an exclusive in the lobby with machinery etc.

Of course by then I would deny I ever made such a promise and if anyone brings up this page I simply state that someone must have hacked my account - might av been the greens or one nation or .......
