    Default 2011 Brisbane TWWW Show

    Well just to get the ball rolling, I just can't wait for May to come around and I've got my bucks all saved for that special tool I just got to have. I'm assuming that the TWWW is on as we have had little info to date. Don't forget U-Beaut have a discount special for forum members. See you all at the show.

    Default Looking forward to WWWS in Brisbane 2011

    Well May is just hours away and I'm counting down the days to the WWWS. I've been scrimping and saving for the big day as I want to buy a half decent scroll saw so I can get into scrolling. I cannot afford the 'Rolls Royce' of scroll saws, maybe when I win lotto lol Nah that won't happen

    I'm also looking forward to seeing and socializing with members of my first woodie club from Ipswich. These are the people who gave me my nick name Penqueen and I always enjoy seeing these terrific folk. Their club went under in the floods during January so please everyone call in and see them ok. I have been assured that they will be at the WWWS.

    See you all there ok.
    Marg.

    I want to get my coffee mug and stand at the Forum stand with mug in hand and make everyone jealous

    As for anything else, I have no idea. Will have to wait and see what timber talks the loudest this time.

    I'm wondering how horrible parking will be. Perhaps someone who has been in previous years can comment?

    Very keen to see this thing in action: Z-VISE, formerly Zyliss Vice, a multi-purpose portable clamping system - would be useful for the limited space I have.

    I didn't think it was that bad, tbh. Drive up, follow the signage/directions/hand waving and try to remember where you parked. Can be a bit of a rabbit warren, but you are always within 5-10 minutes stroll of the Show.

    Yep, I go around the back streets and never had a problem finding a park.

    The problem is they have 3 shows on at the RNA this week end and thay have leased out part of side show ally to the hospital for parking.

    For the 4WD show they were parking people over in victoria park.

    better be there early.

    cheers

    Just got back home...sorry I didn't really get a chance to drop in to the lounge, though I did note it was impressively well utilised. My own slackness and lack of planning... next time...

    Anyhow, parking was no problem, and I can't actually think of a time when it was. Possibly the weekend would be a different story, but I plan never to go on a weekend. Dragged SWMBO along who spent all of the $$$. Possibly because I left my wallet at home. Accident, honest

    Managed to get in for the afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed myself at the forum stand. It was great to put faces to names and meet new friends No problems parking but Saturday will be a different story I guess.

    Picked up the Titebond III and 240mm Z saw as planned, along with some nice chunks of Camphour which jumped out at me.

    Lots of great slabs and dressed timber as always. Some nice pieces of Tiger Myrtle caught my eye but out of the budget this year .

    Bought quite a few Tassie Blackwood slabs. Actually, just about bought one of the exhibitors out, or nearly all I could see anyhow. And a couple of the magnetic feather board thingies.
