put me down for 14:00 to 15:00 friday and saturday DONE at this stage and if there are still vacancies closer to the day I can do some more. I dont want to take too much and stop others from helping out too.

Not long to go now and we are still looking for volunteers. If you would like FREE entry to the show and don't mind helping out at the stand for an hour or so then this is for you...

I have put up on my website the schedule for shifts over the three days. Still some spots on Saturday and Sunday available. Each volunteer is simply asked to pass a pamphlet to the public and tell them a little about the forums (how to get there, what is on it etc. Takes about a minute per customer.)

Typically, you turn up at a pre-arranged time or call me on arrival, I then come out with your ticket. A phone number will be provided to volunteers before the event.

Over previous years most volunteers have found it a good way to catch their breath and meet a bunch of other forumites. Members will often attend the stand on a few days and really take the time to see the show and all the displays and demonstrations; in my view, this is the best way to do it.

Please note: due to a very busy work schedule at the moment I will not be able to make the usual quick updates to the website, bear with me, I will try to update it at least once a day.

Still spots available folks, roll up, roll up!

Check the roster, pick a time, turn up and get free entry!

I've only just joined the forum but have been reading it for ages so can certainly answer questions - so if you want a newbie help I can do the 1500-1700 on the sunday DONE and help you pack up at the end.

Thanks ianr341!


For anyone holding back because they think they may not be able to provide the right advice, after hearing me rabbit on a few times you will get the hang of it. It ain't rocket surgery.

Just to reaffirm what Groggy has said. It someone comes with a question that you are not sure of the answer, one more reason to join to forum, they can post that question.

I'm not on the roster yet?

Yes, you are. I have edited your post as well but if using mobile devices to browse you may not see it. The roster has you in it, you may need to refresh the page (F5).

I have surplus to my needs 6 self made wooded hand screw clamps that I will donate for a free prize draw among forum stand helpers at the T & WWW Show in Melbourne.

I made these clamps many years ago and worked well but my interest in woodworking has changed and now I no longer need that many clamps. They still work well but may need a bit of lubrication (a quick spray with WD 40) on the threads.

So on each day two are to be won by members helping on the stand that day, draw to be done by either Neill or so Groggy is eligible too. Each day is a separate draw so you can win one on each day.

If you want one you will have to be on the roster to help.

Peter.

Hi Groggy,

I have assisted for the last couple of years but this time
there is no way I can make it.

Too many committments and the missus is too insistent
that I attend family functions as a first priority.

Hopefully I can get to the show and assist next year.
