Thread: Blue Mountains Challenge

At $25 sorry to exy
The STWWS isn't that much
Then again to see such a master as you John might be worth it.

WOW - you think I'm worth $25 ??

Graeme Priddle from NZ is the star attraction - and morning tea is included

Well John it was good to see you $25
yeh I know suprised myself and made the trip

Now Graeme Priddle there is a laid-back turner NZ's answer to Skew I guess man stands there talking about safety gear and is wearing no shoes

Love his work on Off centre Turning

Anne Dawes and Bill from Southern Region did a combined display on sacrificial edge bowls which was a one man show as Anne had injured her thumb and couldn't turn

Display's of all the works tops

Then the Challenge watching 5 groups/teams go head to head making a set of candle sticks and bases one whole team being female.

Those door prizes etc I'll take the 8" grinder thanks

Yes, top day.
Graeme was only turning barefooted as his THONGS were slipping on the polished wood floor

Blue Mountains took the club challenge with Central Coast taking second place.
The mystery challenge (the candle sticks) was taken by the Ladies Group.

Best club display - Blue Mountains, Second place Northern Districts.

Hope I got those right - apologies if I got them wrong
Sorry, can't remember the individual awards.

Good Results all round
