Does anyone know anything about this year's woodworking show in Edinburgh? The organisers' web site simply shows the date as mid-October but no mention of who is exhibiting, who is demonstrating, which clubs will be represented, what the attractions are. Last year's was an enjoyable show. I hope...

Is there an Alexandra Palace exhibition this year? The organisers web site still has 2010 details and keeps telling you to come back for 2011 information. But if there is an exhibition it cannot be far away. I haven't seen any advertising either. Last year was an improvement, but have they now...

Nobody doing a finishing demonstration at the Edinburgh show? You obviously missed Mark Raby's very knowledgable presentation on finishing there. He even had a seating area.

I was told that the Broxburn club is at its maximum capaciy. It does not want or need any new members. That is one of the reasons why they turned down the offer of a stand at the show in Ingliston.

I thoroughly enjoyed the show. For a first attempt by a new promoter it was very worthwhile.......easier and cheaper to get to than the Glasgow show. You cannot expect them to get it 100% right first time. As for lack of exhibits one standholder told me two or three had dropped out at the last...

Thanks for the information. It looks interesting. I assume Sorby will have it on their stand at the forthcoming woodworking exhibition in Edinburgh. If it works well it could be on my Christmas wish list.

I noticed in the new issue of Good Woodworking an advertisemt from Sorby for a new hollowing tool called Ultima. Has anyone seen one? I can see that the specification is posted on the Sorby web site but I cannot see any prices. I have looked at the regular sites -Turners Retreat, Toolpost...

There is now a list of exhibitors for the Scottish Woodcraft show on the organisers' site - www.nelton.co.uk. Unfortunately they have omitted the list of demonstrators. In addition to Stuart Mortimer, does anyone know who else will be demonstrating turning....or carving, pyrography, furniture...

Shells, Thank you for the reply. I have e-mailed Hegner twice to see if they plan to exhibit but they do not seem to want to reply. I understand that a couple of turning clubs are taking stands at the show. Any idea when a list of exhibitors and demonstrators will be available?

I am thinking of buying a ProEdge when the woodworking show is on in Edinburgh. Has anyone got any views on how it performs against a Tormek?

Shells Many thanks for your response. Hopefully an exhibitor list will appear shortly.

Are Sorby likely to be demonstrating their sharpening machine which is advertised in 'Woodturning'?

Out of curiosity I contacted the promoter of the Glasgow woodworking exhibition to see what the likelihood is of it taking place again in 2011. The repsonse I received was Hi Andie, At this point in time I do not intend to do a woodworking show nin Glasgow in 2011. Regards Ken Salter...

I have been speaking to a guy who seems to know a bit about this show. It appears that a number of Scottish turning clubs have been invited to take stands to run demonstrations as well as furniture colleges. They are expecting to have stands for carving and pyrography too. It seems there are...
