    Default Brisbane Wood Show

    The show is 12th to the 14th May at the EKKA showground.

    Looking forward to it .

    And I have permission from SWMBO to buy just about nothing :eek: so how sneaky can I be not much really - oh well - look and dream.

    Hey there's always one gadget you find (in discovery) then suddenly realise you can't live without, now you know it exists.

    I am so there!! Am hoping to sneak the credit card out of HWMNBO's wallet, and stay down in Brisvegas one or two nights purely so I can meet more fellow forum members on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and maybe be around on the Sunday afternoon to snap up some of the close of show bargains.

    cheers

    I'll be there.

    The big disappointment I call it.

    But I have my annual catch-up with my mates in the Wooden Boat Association, and the Australian Association of Musical Instrument Makers (AAMIM), and of course all of you lot, which makes it well worth the day off work, the admission price, and a few rounds of coffee!

    Friday or Saturday for me... hopefully Friday! (I don't think I need to buy anything at all either)

    Cheers,

    P

    I will also be there but due to being off work will have to curtail my spending.

    Look forward to catching up with some at the show

    Cheers sam

    NOOOOO I won't buy anything either LOL LOL

    There's always one gadget that life depends upon.

    I know I need about a dozen clock inserts from Jonathan Knowles or similar for some good ol ozzie clocks to take to the foreign relies later this year whilst on international safari.

    Might get one of those stay cool blue grind wheels - are they worth while anyone - looked impressive last time for not heating the metal?

    Have to make sure I wear the hat!

    Saturday is shaping up to be my day - will make a big day of it as I enjoy fossicking through the trash and treasure tents full of obscure gadgets some good amongst large piles of not so good.

    Nope, you bought the coffee last year... you might like to see if you can get some muffins though.

    Major should see if he can remember to bring his from the kitchen bench too.

    Brendan,
    Isn't there a Felder agent in Qld? I thought he was in the Gold Coast hinterland- I did speak to him about a year ago when I was looking at buying a panel saw spindle moulder combo. Not that I want to upset your junket plans, sorry work travel . I won't be going myself unfortunately, too much work on and were planning a road trip down south in June/July.
