Have allready posted this on the wood turning forum, but would like to see what response I can get from the non woodturners as well. What I would like to get, is feedback, to hand to the suppliers, good and bad, so that we can make the shows more enjoyable, not only for my own show, but at all shows - please feel free to comment.
Am holding a show over here in Ireland, but am curious to know what everyone would actually like to see at Show Weekends. I got some response from a forum here on the Scottish Show, in that people wanted to see a good finish display, so hopefully I have persuaded Terry Smart from Chestnut products to come and offer his advice. Am having Record, Startrite, Charnwood and Trend in the machinery Hall, and then Robert Sorby, Ashley Iles, Brimarc, and hopefully Chestnut in the Woodturning/wood carving area, with Mark Baker as guest demonstrator - admission is free as I feel that if people make the effort to come, it is my way of returning the travel - although I'm hoping to have a box beside Mark, for donations as an appreciation - total up to the public to donate - What I want to know from everyone, is what really attracts them to a show, and what they would like to see ? Please reply even PM, as would be very interested to read.
Many Thanks
Stanley
