Columbus, OH Pen Show in November

[LarryDNJR]

Anyone hear anything on this? Tidbits I've found online say there is a pen show in Columbus during November 4-7 2010. The website http://www.ohiopenshow.com/ doesn't have current year information but all other information I've seen points to there being a show. I'm not sure if it falls in the category of what most of us do. I'm thinking about checking it out possibly.

Terry Mawhorter runs the show (as well as the Triangle Pen Show which is usually held in June in Raleigh NC). There are usually 5 or 6 penturners at these shows.

Check out the Fall 2010 issue of Woodturning Design, just got mine in the mail this past week. There is an article on page 34 that talks about the Columbus show. It looks like there are around 160 tables of all pen related items. I now live in Houston but was born and raised in the small town of Prospect, Ohio, north of Columbus about 50 miles. I may have to visit around this time just so as I can check it out this year.

It is a nice show. Several members here have had booths there. I learned how to apply a gold plating to metal parts at a demo in 2008.

Anyone know what it cost just to go on Sunday. All I saw was $50 for the whole weekend.

Looks like the, "Public Show" is $5.00 per day. But I don't think that includes any of the workshops or demos.

I have exhibited there in the past. It is a nice show with lots to see. Unfortunately, I could not keep from spending all of my profits on new pens for my collection.
