Hello, All -
I've PMed a bit with Mark and I've decided (before I've heard back from him on this) to offer to host a local chapter meeting here in Fresno on 28 February. I think I can easily host up to 20 people here at my apartment clubhouse, and can probably do better than that with a little coordination. There is a BBQ area by the clubhouse, so we can grill up lunch on-site, too.
I can back the car out of the gara..er, workshop and offer space in there for any demos or discussions, if we don't just move stuff to the clubhouse. For any demos, I'm happy to offer up my tools, I have a Jet midi lathe, 14" BS, drill press, etc., so I think I can support most basic demonstrations. I don't do any casting, so I can't offer anything for that, but I'd love to see some!
Anyway, if this will work and nobody will come after me for hijacking the local chapter, please RSVP either here or via PM.
We can discuss times/durations and programming here and if this goes, I'll publish an "official" agenda no later than the 7th.
