Summer Bash - August 22nd

[Steve Maskery]

Well someone calling himself Charley did turn up at a Bash we had here a couple of years ago. Of course, it could have just been "a" Charley as opposed to "the" Charley, but if he was an impostor, he was a convincing one. Never been seen since though, so perhaps we were all hallucinating.

It would be great if he did appear, we could express our appreciation - bottles of whisky, chocolate, the odd Lie Neilsen or two, I'm not sure what his tastes are, but we could all say Thank You.

We want Charley! We want Charley! We want Charley!

Now were talking, I'm in

 

[Steve Maskery]

Does anyone have a gadget for truing the stone on a Tormek? I've just been using mine and it wobbles. Not a lot, but I'd prefer it if it didn't wobble at all.

If you do, would you be a super-hero and bring it along. I'll bring my Tormek and we can get it sorted. And if anyone wants their blades grinding, be my guest.

Thanks
Steve

Hi all Everthing is in place for the 22nd.

You can see the workshop here about in the middle but will post directions in a week or so.

Chocolate Cake sounds good . I was thinking about putting on a barbecue if the weather is good. Any Veggies?

Steve I have a diamond truer for the Tormek.

Anyone have any ideas for demos things to do etc. I was thinking I could set up a veneering demo of flat and curved work using the airpress as well as beaded face frames and cabinet doors etc using the spindle and tenoner etc and maybe a bit of spray finishing and of course Hand planes and such like.

Cheers

Jon

I'd err on the side of less demos. You'll find, when you get a load of woodies in on place, they can perfectly amuse themselves with bending each other's ears

Hi,

Having not been on the forum much recently I hadn't noticed this.

Is it too late to register an interest, the suggested demos sound like it will be an interesting and informative day?

Gav

Hi Jonny

I cant make it I'm afraid - due to work and family commitments I've had to chose between this and the festival of wood the following weekend.
