Thread: Craft Fair At Hall Showground

At the last WWWood Show in Canberra I established a contact with an interesting firm that normally specialises in large slabs of dried burl and other timbers,made a six hour visit travelling time for the day and brought home a car full. At the Show gave one guy and his wife a pen then today the other partner in the business was to be in Canberra to sell slabs so I made him a pen using Mallee Burl on Saturday.

On the way in to his stall I dropped the pen on the grass,quick pic and here it is as a present to him.Exciting happening two stalls away was my Jewish mate Avi who related he had touched base with his mate in Jerusalem re looking up a number of Olive pieces for me,that friend owns a timber empire there.

The back yard is now puppy proofed so I had a turning day Saturday and made a variety of Slimlines.Pics will follow. Regards Peter
