Looks like fun! Can you identify some of the people so we can put names and faces together?


Ooops! Too quick on the keys. Thanks for the names.

Already done. I had to post and then go back and edit so I could see the pics. You caught me while I was editing!!

Curtis, that looked like a lot of fun and it seems there was a lot of knowledge sharing. Its good to put the names and faces together. One day I'll have to make the trip to the hill country for one of those if I can find a way to get away. Sorry I missed it.

C A demo at Curtis workshop

First I must thank Curtis for having us all to his workshop. And second for putting on a great demo for CA finish. I myself have never done a CA finish and now feel confident I too can do a great CA finish.

Great demo Curtis:smile-big:

Was nice meeting members of the IAP and taking in all the information shared with all members.

Texatdurango (George) did a nice little demo with his new Beal Pen Wizard. Pretty cool machine. I myself was thinking about one. Ordering one next week.

Pen blank swap was a blast. I walked out so happy getting one of Curtis's acorn blanks. Made my day:smile-big: Keith "mrburls"

Looks Like Fun

I wish San Marcos was a little closer to Houston or, in other words, that I had time to hop in the car and head over to Curtis' shop. Nothing beats a bunch of wood workers swapping stories, comparing works, or seeing it in action with a demo!
