Just a quick thank you to Jon for hosting today's event. You managed to order some good weather too and provide an excellent BBQ.

Thanks to several people there with sharpening methods, I might have actually learned something today.

Also thanks to Steve for the Sketchup demo which I think will prompt more people to have a go with this excellent program.

regards

Brian
 
Jon and family,
Thanks very much for today, enjoyed meeting everyone and the BBQ was great. The lesson on how to sharpen a chisel on the Tormek, was very much appreciated

A very big thanks to John and his family. Both Mel and I had a wonderful day there. You all laid on a wonderful spread too which was much appreciated. Thanks once again for the gift of the beech veneer too John It will come in very handy once I get the hang of using it. What a wonderful day and even the weather was very kind to us all. :D

Notice that Andy had managed to spill blood by not paying full attention while using the Tormek so what hope was there when he was at the table saw. [-(
