913 hours remaining. That means it's getting really close....really close!
Made my 'sheet' for my demo already....figure I should be a bit more prepared this time instead of rambling ;)

Ok, I just sent the e-mail with directions to Ken's house. If you're interested in attending, and you didn't get the email, let me know, and I'll get the details to you through a PM.

WOOHOO!!!!

Only 432 hours or 25,920 minutes remaining until the meeting!
I should be back to work(released from the WComp), but I'll make sure I'm not milling that day! I've got couple thousand boardfeet of jobs lined up...but I'm making the meeting a top priority over the income!

Looking forward to the 'kitless demo', needing some pointers to figure out what is eluding me.

Got my outline all done, and I'll be bring the sharpening 'system' for my demo(it'll be fairly quick):biggrin:

IMPORTANT
If anyone is planning to attend that is on the forums here, but not on the 'emailing list' and needs the directions(or address to 'smack' into a GPS thing). Ask, and you shall receive them!

Yes! Looking forward to the demo as well! I have just had hernia surgery Firday & intended to start on my PITH Modified Slimline today but; I wasn't aware that I was going to be as , let's say, handicapped as I am! lol I decided my previous effort just wasn't what I wanted so I am back to the drawing board! Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Surgery trumps pen-turning.....you might not need to be turning for awhile.

I'll admit, I haven't turned a pen. Been trying to keep up the pile of Red Maple blanks I've had laying around on the other side of the lathe. Turned four bowls in the last week-n-a-half! I'll start on the Butternut chunks tomorrow after I get done mowing the grass.....if it stops raining long enough.

Phillip, that pen looks really good. I spoke with DLGunn and he asked if anyone had made a pen from his Alumalite blanks. I haven't yet but I need to.

Whew....thanks Ken for once again opening up your home to us. Had some great information shared during this meeting and I'm at this very moment, waiting on the GoPro files to convert so I can do a bit of editing.
