Perfect plan Ray! Coming from many years experience, I'm sure.

Forgot to mention call in for afternoon tea and chat

Hey John you home from NZ'd

Ray, what's Henry Bros addy. I happen to maybe up Windsor way for work during July . . . .

(I know I have the raw blade, but I have always heard of how good their blades are . . . you can never have to many blades/toys)

Henry Bros. Saws

541 Old Hawkesbury Rd, Vineyard, NSW 2765
p: (02) 96275486

Ring them with your size and requirements first and pick up while there they don't usually make them on the spot and don't usually have unusual sizes in stock.

Not as bad as going to McJings but still be warned BS blades aren't all the do SC, handsaws, router bits.

Hope its a Wednesday OTGA not far away.

Dunno when, just know that I may have to do 2 days training out at Windsor during July, I'll probably find out more later this month at an "information" session I have to attend.

For lunch on Friday I will be outside the front door at 1:00pm with forum hat on..

Henry Bros do mail order.

I've never been a big fan of the non-woodworking stands at the show but...
After spending my afternoon wrestling with my whipper snipper I was hoping that the bloke who sells replacement whipper snipper heads may be at this years show.

Can anyone remember what his stall/company was called?

Cheers,
Geoff

Sometimes it just has to be. Give the kids something to do.

Like walking between stands.

EXPO TIME!
Blogged it @ the love of wood. Lots of timber pics.

Only one sneak peak now. I really don't like camphor. Don't like the smell. Don't like that it's a weed. Don't like to work with it. Just don't like it. But this is the most amazing piece of fiddleback camphor I think I've ever seen. I was at Boutique timbers 30min after the show opened and it was already sold.
