Here's a reminder for the first meeting of Southeast turners.

Time: 12:00
Date: Saturday, September 23rd
General Location: Around 20 miles due north of Atlanta, about halfway between 575 and 400, and just below 92.

Bring your pens for show and tell, bring stuff you want to try on a laser, we can watch and discuss CNC and other new technologies, try polyester casting, discuss marketing strategies, talk finishes, and turn pens.

I have mostly metal working equipment, so if you have a lathe that can be moved, that would be good too. I should have enough chairs and space.

Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks Al. Just bring any an all turning stuff that other guys might be interested in. I should have drinks and munchies here. Bring a bathing suit if you want to swim!

My address: 4550 Bastion Drive Roswell, GA 30075. One of the map sites is a good way to go, or I can email specific directions depending on where you come from.

Bruce, I'm planning on being there and looking forward to meeting othrs with this obsession.

Are any of you going to bring your wives or girlfriends or is this a men only thing?

I think the wife is game. Going to bring the kiddies too. I may be getting my buddy Chad who is a new turner to come too, so if he brings his famdamily, it'll be 8 people in our caravan.

As soon as I get a solid answer from everyone, I'll find out what to bring in the way of food stuffs.

Eh, mostly at TPS, but not even that active there. Just too busy with other stuff now a day. Not much time for turning, but my buddy Chad is getting into it, so it's dragging me back in.

I am new to the site, but would love to attend. I live in Kennesaw and have not met any other turners in the area. It would be nice to see other's techniques.

Hi Andy, I used to have my shop in Kennesaw when I made bike parts off Moon Station Road. I'm sure you must know all about the wood place there.

I will also be at the Redmond store opening. We have a turning club that will be demonstrating there on some of the equipment. I will probably be there later in the afternoon.

I will definitely be there, but I may not be able to arrive before 1:00 p.m. as I have a meeting in the morning. I hope that's ok.
Steve S. aka Steve542, I live off Briarcliff Road near Northlake mall. Thanks for setting this up

Al just brought this to my attention. I nearly missed it. I should be able to make it. I'll bring either my wife or girlfriend. [:D]
I've got a Mercury VS minilathe I can bring. Do you have a cabinet or something to sit lathes on? Anything else we should bring?

Hi Jim, I have a table and a bunch of countertops in my shop. We should find something that will work. I'm not sure what else to bring. This is all new to me!

Hey anyone else coming from the Athens area? I'd love to interest you in our turning club... Not to take anything away from the Penturners here or anything, but it's a great club. I'd love to meet up with you at Bruce's place.

I think I may blast off early from the the Redmonds thing on Sat. but I hate too, since I'm not sure if I'll make it on Friday at the rate my cabinet job is going through the shop. I may have to stay and babysit it Fri. if it doesn't get installed on Thurs.

At any rate I plan to be there and meet up with you guys.
