Thread: Next Vic turnfest?

I should be able to come along, Ern, will apply for the day off once the date is finalised.

Looking forward to it. Rodent & Fred cooking -

Wow. This sounds great !!!

I'd love to be there too.

I will definitely be there. These events are great for sharing acquired knowledge and a "little" BS as well. If anyone has a Longworth chuck they could bring along for a demo I would greatly appreciate it. I've seen them mentioned quite a bit on the forum and would like to see one in action.

Cheers
GJ

Can share a car again, John, my turn this time.

Ern I haven't used it enough to blunt it yet

Govarney, you'd be very welcome.

GJ, will be good to catch up. And you too Sean. George welcome too.

Hughie, any space in your luggage allowance to fit in a Longworth? Maybe you could wear it - a Peter Pan collar ;-}

Allan, tsk. Get some brushbox to turn ... that'll send you to the diamond hone quick smart.

...

Will get down to date options later today. I'm guessing that a new poll will need a new thread so will post the link.

And if you haven't already indicated a specific interest pls do so; if I don't hear from you I'll assume you're happy to yarn and watch whatever we organise.

Thanks again to all those who've volunteered to help.

I'll work out something of a program and post it on the new thread.

Hmmm, see how I go, have a part finished 4 jaw one of 300mm dia that has a ring to fit 140mm jaws... i think , have to dig it out and check. It would fit the bag, anybody know what the kilo allowance is on domestic?



jeez might have to drive down at this rate

20kg from memory.

Will check my kit for jaws that will cover 140mm.

Ok, 140 expanding no prob.

Contracting: 139 mm (advertised).

No prob turning up an MDF carrier though.
