Who is carpooling from the San Ramon, Pleasanton area. I don't have carpool stuff figured out and it sounds like a nessecity. Let me know if you want to carpool. I don't have to drive but I'm flexible.

I'll be there a little after 11am. I'm bringing a variety of sodas (diet and regular) and some waters. But with 18 people it wouldn't hurt if someone brought more.

Weather

Weather report shows 52 deg and should get to 62 deg by 3pm. Currently the garage is 59 deg. I'm hoping we'll get a few degrees warmer.

Larry & Michelle, now that I have finally gotten home and onto the computer I want to thank you for opening your home to us and helping us to have such an inspiring meeting. The new people brought fresh ideas and camaraderie and the seasoned members came together to create new memories. I had a great time and look forward to the next fabulous get together.

Thanks for a great gathering. Larry and Michelle, you have a beautiful home. Thanks for having us all. Really enjoyed meeting lots of new people and seeing old friends again.

One suggestion for next meeting - we could raffle off a drill press. Any ideas where we could find one?

Thanks!

Thank you everyone for helping with the food and making this a great meeting.

I enjoyed everyone's stories of how they started in wood turning. I did notice that 10 years was pretty common, with some with many more and some with many less.

I hope that our new members continue attending future meetings, and consider joining BAWA as well.

For those interested in the Smithy 3-in-1 metal lathe and Mill, there is a posting in Craigslist. This one has a longer bed.

It was great to socialize with everyone! And yes you can never have too many drill presses!

Thanks,

Larry and Michelle

Thank you Larry and Michelle! What a comfy place! Larry, that Smithy is really something! And your incumbent bike is pretty darn cool too. Thanks again for hosting.

I have started a new thread with a "custom kitless" emphasis for those interested.
