Set up friday afternoon the 27th but the real kick of is saturday morning the 28th.

Of all these events this one is truely 3 days of turning, dust and lies. Oh and yes you may go home learning something.

HBi All,
My Apologies, People, I got my days mixed up, as it is Friday 27th. April, 2012, Is Set Up Day .
I thought it a bit funny to have 4 days, though it would be nice all the same.

The OFFICIAL dates are Saturday 28th - Monday 30th April. However, it is common practise for most to come up on Friday, set up their stuff and then enjoy a meal with the group at the local RSL before retiring for the night. Last year we even had someone start turning on the Friday afternoon so they got lots of turning done. This year we have a small hiccup in that we have to wait for the bingo-ers to finish their lunch before we can move in in the afternoon.

There are/will be spare lathes for those who definitely can't bring their own. They will NOT be reserved for anyone in particular so they do need to be shared.

Horsham is a 3 hour drive from Melbourne, heading west towards Adelaide. Initially I set up this event to attract turners from the Western part of Vic where there was a distinct lack of this style of event. However, turners come from far and wide; a few from SA and some from Bairnsdale (a 6 hour drive).

We have 2 full days of turning and 2 half days so we try to make it worth the drive. And our demonstrations were a real hit last year. did a demo as did Charles Greig from Hahndorf who showed us some gold leaf application. THere were more, these are just two examples. Great raffle prizes (we have 5 raffles over the course of the w/e) and great food. What more could you ask for.

There is a genuine limit of 80 participants (including partners) due to catering constraints and the last two years we reached these numbers. So don't leave it til the last moment to get interested. All you need to do at this point is send me an email and I will get the info out to you within the next couple of days (My intention is to do it tonight).

Ok so it's 3 weeks away
what nuts from the fourm are going to be there apart from my self?
,Jim,tea lady, I know of

Me and issatree that I know of are other forum members

Look forward to meeting you there nz_carver and TL
