I'd be happy to bring an HEB pre-cooked brisket. You are right, they are really good. I hadn't thought of that. If you are going to have a grill, we could throw it on for a while to heat it up. I'll go ahead and bring one, unless there is any objection.
Next get together

Update
Everyone keep referring back to my post ( page 11) with all the details....I am making changes ( editing it) as I get new info.....for instance, Tim Walkup will be bringing german potato salad, not Tim Hughes. Frank is bringing another brisket.....
So, check that post at least daily for changes.....Allan

Really looking forward to seeing everyone.
Vern I also have a couple of those 5' plastic tables if still needed.

Curtis,
I have one (possibly two) 6' tables I can bring. I'll even leave one of them with you if you like for just such occasions.
Thanks for putting this on, it's looking like it will be quite a production!

Hey Guys, I RSVP'd a while ago, but haven't been online to follow the discussion (Thanks for the poke Allen!)
1) Food items you are bringing - (trimmings)Pickles, Jalepenos, Onions.
2) Whether or not you will do a class or demo - No
3) What and amount of beer you are bringing - none, don't like the stuff
4) whether or not you will be bringing items for a swap meet - I'll take a look but probably won't. My collection is still pretty "newbie-ish" so not many exciting pieces of wood.
5) whether or not you are bringing anything to sell - No
6) whether or not you are bringing your significant other - Yes, she's interested.
7) whether or not you will be staying the night - No
Any other trimmings let me know! (sorry for the delay)

Having a mini lathe would be a good idea, especially if it is variable speed. I have a spare Turncrafter Pro that can be used but am spoiled by my Nova DVR and hate changing belts! Having a variable speed would be helpful for my CA demo since my DVR is a little hard to move and where it is located, is harder to get a lot of folks around.

I just saw in post 109 that Verne is bringing pickles, onions, jalapenos, would you guys like me to bring something else?
Oh and Curtis, my mini lathe isn't VS but I'll bring it anyway!

Mesquite stumps
Monty, about a month or so ago I had my Mesquite tree trimmed and i have several chunks of them. Since I am new and have not aquired a lathe yet i's be happy to bring some with me just let me know how many you need. These stomps are about 10" in diameter and I's say about 10 or 12" high. i think i should ahve at least about 5 of them. But I's like to see your demo up close and maybe some one would let me to really get my feet wet on a lathe. :bananen_smilies046f course after we are done with the classes.

I just talked to Allan today little while ago and here it is the final result:
(Allan i just talked to Eugene this afternoon and I told him that i'd like to bring some cheese cake squares form Costco. We have used them before and everytime we get them people liked them. Also, I'd like to know if you want me to bring water bottles for in between the meals. lease let me know so I can have them ready by Friday, since I am riding along with keith and Eugene. I'd hate to hold them back last minutes for the things that we need to bring. And here is my Final List as of 10:06 AM:
1) Food items - Cheese Cake Desert 2 Boxes, Pre-sliced, Pre-Cooked Brisket from Sam's, some water bottles.
2) Whether or not you will do a class or demo - No
3) What and amount of beer you are bringing - I'll bring waters instead.
4) whether or not you will be bringing items for a swap meet -
No I am new and don't have any< i'll bring 4 or 5 Mesquite logs Instead.
5) whether or not you are bringing anything to sell - No
6) whether or not you are bringing your significant other - no
7) whether or not you will be staying the night- no

Stuff
As someone mentioned, bring your best stuff to show off.....I think Curtis has a couple of tables where we can have a " show and tell" area. This generates alot of discussion and high fives.
Also, someone ( Curtis?) mentioned someone bringing a mini lathe or two. Probably a good idea...we have a couple of newbies coming that could use a little one-on-one with a lathe.
Be sure to check post # 109 periodically. That is where I post the latest changes, additions, new folks coming, food, etc.....

Allan, you might want to add that I am bringing the Mesquite logs, 4-5 of them so we can mill them and do demos on them. thanks Phillip:RockOn:

Phillip,
If you want to bring mesqutie logs that is fine but I have PLENTY of mesquite if you don't want to mess with dragging it along. I have about 4,000 bf of mesquite logs! Now you know why I use the handle that I use!
As for the sawmill...the minimum diameter log that is worth milling is about 8" if it is a really worthwhile wood. The minimum length is about 4' but I can sometimes cut shorter with the help of a jig I made (if I can find it).
Remember, be sure to print out the map or at least read the directions. If you just use my address in your GPS, YOU WILL LIKELY NOT GET HERE!

well, my EZ-Up is not so easy any more. years of beach use have finally taken their toll on one of the legs and I don't have spare parts here to fix it.
so, we can either use one of Curtis's logs to prop up 1 corner, or it'll need some "repetitive percussive maintenance" to get the leg to extend. I hit it with some PB Blaster last night, maybe that will loosen it up.

Just thought I'd let everyone know that Texas State University is having commencement ceremonies this weekend in San Marcos. Not sure, but you might encounter more traffic than normal because of it. Might want to allow some extra travel time.
