    Hey Midge ! Were you in pain or something when they took that
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Any thing with sharp teeth eats meat.
    Most powertools have sharp teeth.
    People are made of meat.
    Abrasives can be just as dangerous as a blade.....and 10 times more painfull.

    Yep, it was a fantastic Day, well worth the trip down from Toowoomba. I even got to visit Dai Sensei's new shed and that was great!!

    Thanks to Mr & Mrs G Pye. The bbq was so yummy!!

    I got some decent sandpaper but am waiting for a non-rainy day to use it.

    Great Photos Neil, can't wait to see the others.

    Cheers

    A big thank you to Gary and Janine (sp?) for their hospitality. It was great being able to put faces to names, although I must admit I felt embarressed to introduce myself as my online moniker. I was suprised there weren't more people there, I thought more members from Brisbane and northern NSW might have made it. It was a very pleasant afternoon which ended too soon. I'll post some pics when I get home.

    Many thanks to the hosts for the venue and BBQ spread (and chairs!). Was a lovely day out and nice to meet people from the forum - many of which have provided much inspiration and advice.

    Cheers

    You missed Gary's, but the next one is being organised at my place, although Gary will hopefully be there. See http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...ad.php?t=22378
