I'm flying home today - back around 3 PM. All should be filled soon.
I was unsure of the added Sunday... maybe we should add Monday now (kidding).

Mike, you should probably shut down vendor registration or at least start a wait list. Assuming Fred commits. We will have the same number if not one more.

As stated above.
I do not need to demo, all the local guys have seen it and I can explain most of it one on one at my table.
I would recommend moving me to a backup and put guests in my slots.
I will of course be ready to fill in if needed or if time somehow opens up.

As of my rough draft tonight - you still are slated for a Sunday full session. But I understand your sentiment, and will keep that in my back pocket as I juggle the last 2-3 sessions. It is nice to have a full slate, with 2-3 sessions as backups for a last minute decline.
I will now try to rough out the 8-12+ "Break-out" room sessions. These are also filling in nicely.
I have 4-5 messages in to folks for preference of days, so when I hear back, I can finalize the sessions.
Then just need to wait for the last minute declines/replacements.

Michelle confirmed she is attending, and prefers a Saturday slot - which is fine. I have sent private e-mails (non IAP) to Barry Gross and Ed Brown for final topics and preferred days.

Confirmed:
Segmented Turning - Barry Gross (He also said he would bring more kits this year).
Mosaic Pin Pens - Dave Bell
Watch Parts Blanks - Michelle Ferrara
Each for a Main Room Demo.

Just got another offer from a Buckeye IAP Woodturning Chapter member that he would also do a non-pen demo.
He also joined IAP (BobHasen). Bob Hasenyager.
We have all full room demos filled. One slot is either a panel discussion on Marketing or Toni Ransfield or Magic Skew & Carbide. If Toni graces us with her aura, we have a spot, if not we have several nice options.
Magic, yes, as of now you are shuffled out of the full demo line-up, pending last minute drop-outs.
I am waiting to hear from Jim Pratt on a topic, and Ed Brown if Friday is OK with him. After that, I'll get a reasonable final line-up with more precise times for the websites.
I've also started to make the trim ring blanks. These sold the best last year $20.00 each, sold about 23. If I can get 20-30, I'll sell these in the demo room when I am there, or maybe bribe Magic to sell at his table.

Hey Mark,
The next time I have about an hour free I am going to call Ed to see what goodies he may be donating. When I do I'll ask him if Friday is OK with him.
As far as Toni goes, By next week I should know why she and Ed Street mysteriously vanished from the SEPG lineup. I seriously doubt that they will come, but I've been wrong before.

WORKING DRAFT AS OF 1/27/2018
MIKE: There have been some shifting of topics/times due to presentor requests. These are Highlighted in BLUE. I think the schedule and demos are 95% done.
Additional comments: Mike, on the website, Ernie's last name is misspelled in one spot, and Buckeye Woodturners is also mispelled once. I believe that is all the errors I spotted.
1. I have sent several messages to Ed Brown and Jim Pratt to confirm their scheduled times and topics; I have not heard back.
2. Barry Gross will be doing a powerpoint for part of his session, so we will need the video set-up.
3. We will need to recruit some volunteers to supervise the break-out room lathe sessions. I can solicit from the general attendees once I get a list of the current registrants; as well as Ohio Chapter folks when we meet in March. I'm not worried about these.
4. I intend to be in the Break-Out Room most of the time it is open, simply to have a committee member there to monitor the sessions/assist. I will also display the IAP Collection there, so I will not need a table in the main room.
5. I have not heard back from Toni Ransfield, so I put the Marketing session in (We will need someone to moderate this and get 2-3 people to be the panel - any volunteers?) If she comes at the last minute we can put her in this spot.
6. I will bring my mini-lathe for the Break-out room, but it would be nice if we had a second.
7. If we have any last minute demo cancellations, these are the backups (Vendor Talks; Lasers/Rotary Jig - Magicbob).
Magicbob: With possibly 2 lathes, tools, etc and the IAP Collection in the Break-Out room, check if we can have a room key to lock this room when not is use. For liability, I would feel better if it was locked when not in use. We can simply post a sign when the room will be reopened for the next demo/session.
The order of the demos, and even specific topics can be adjusted as more preferences come in.

Hi Mike, I just saw the changes. Looks good, just a few last minutes pokes (I'll stop soon).
Delete the second time for the "contests/snack" time period.
In the Speakers Menu; Borraga and Buckeye (spelling). Add Bob Hasenyager - Buckeye AAW Chapter - Alternate Small Turnings. Take off Magic from the Main Room - he is now a backup for this topic.
And I did pick up a donation of 100 catalogs for turning blanks from: AdvantageLumber.com and 20 pen blanks. (They have a lumber yard in Brazil and sell pen blanks for as little as .50/each!!)
Mark

I've sent requests to all the demo volunteers asking if they need any materials, accessories, etc. I've gotten 3 responses. Basically - not much of a response. Some have not acknowledged my messages in weeks.
Just thought I'd let you know! :redface: Program has been final formatted, name tags are printed up-to date, my demo materials are almost organized, vegi trays are ordered, so I'm on track for my stuff.
I'll be bringing my lathe, stand and accessories, a second stand for the lathe magicbob is bringing, and the lathe for the raffle.

Thanks

Mark I only have a couple more names since the last update. I will send this weekend.

IAP Collection, Curator
My understanding was that your lathe is the main room demo lathe, so yes and all available accessories (chucks, spur centers, drill chuck, knock out bars, etc.). I'll bring my basic gouges/carbides (as I indicated - I have gotten little feedback from the demo volunteers on what they may need :frown:. My schedule needs to get this stuff set in advance, so I'll box up my stuff when I get back to Medina this Tuesday).
My mini lathe/stand and all accessories - Break-Out Room
Magicbob's mini lathe/stand (from me) and all accessories - Break-Out Room.
Between your accessories, and mine - I suspect we can cover the three lathes easily (usually only one or two in service at a time). We just need to be mindful to get our stuff back at the end.

That is fine, I am not home now so its not a hurry. I'll print out the last minute ones, and 20-30 blank ones for walk-ins, as well as some sticker name tags.

Ron Tomasch will not be able to do the Break-Out room session on Saturday. He is Fine for his full room demo though.
I'll keep the session on the schedule, but switch it to an open session for beginning pens and see if we can get a volunteer to supervise. Maybe Ernie will help also. I'll be home tomorrow and will get 5-10 sierra tubes glued up for the session so a new volunteer would just have to supervise.
There is a woodturning/art festival in Minerva, OH the same weekend where a bunch of the Buckeye Woodturners usually help out at, so we may lose some of those guys that were thinking of coming and paying "at the door."

I should have all the last minute schedule modification changes finalized by later today or tomorrow AM. Got a bunch of PM's in the works, but the slots are essentially filled, just need confirmation.
mark james
IAP Collection, Curator
If anyone needs any last minute chores done - I have today and Thursday open. I think my stuff is just needing to get packed.
Chris Labedz will be bringing his Beall Pen Wizard to MPG. He did a Chicagoland IAP Chapter presentation recently (I was not there) and can be a main room back-up demo, or we can plug him into an additional Break-Out session.
So we now have three back-up sessions.
1. Beall Pen Wizard
2. Panel discussion on audience led topics
3. Open time for vendor sales and socializing
Programs got printed yesterday (150).
Name tags are up to date (94), with 30+ blank for walk-ins.
Snack stuff will be ava at 8 AM Friday for pick-up.
If there is no need for using the Break-out room on Sunday, I will pack most of it up Saturday evening and take the large stuff home. I will be leaving directly from MPG to go to my In-Laws - We were notified yesterday that My Mother-In Law will be discharged on Monday (the next day). This is a week earlier than what were had been told, so all preparations need to be adjusted.
NOTE: Ernie did not need heart surgery, after the exploratory surgery they felt the blockages can be treated with medications over 4-6 months.
Chris Labedz will be bringing his Beall Pen Wizard to MPG. He did a Chicagoland IAP Chapter presentation recently (I was not there) and can be a main room back-up demo, or we can plug him into an additional Break-Out session.
So we now have three back-up sessions.
1. Beall Pen Wizard
2. Panel discussion on audience led topics
3. Open time for vendor sales and socializing
Programs got printed yesterday (150).

All I know is this seemed to sneak up on me way too fast.
