August 1, 20187 yr Wow, August already and I'm looking forward to meeting folks at out gathering. To repeat some stuff: it's August 25th at my place, from 10:00ish to 5:00 or earlier (some of you have a good long drive to get here). I'll provide lunch and drinks (probably fried chicken and sides). More info in this thread. Some other thoughts: If a few of you could bring some folding chairs it would help, right now it looks like about 7-8 guests. Some have indicated they would like to bring some things; how about snacks? Duck soup will be bringing home made cookies...maybe some chips or whatever). Bring cameras, I'll be taking photos but many more is better. What have I forgot? Suggestions welcome.
August 1, 20187 yr Author Popular Post I can show a some of my stuff in the house, if you guys promise to not laugh yourself to death. Ron, I haven't heard anything from Ralph. I guess we could try to set off the Sawstop. Everybody does it with a saw blade, maybe we could try it with a dado set. Edited August 1, 20187 yr by Fred W. Hargis Jr

I just gave up 5 vials of blood today for experimental purposes so I'm out. I'll just take your & their word for it. No need to punish an innocent hot dog either.

Some have indicated they would like to bring some things; how about snacks? Donuts for AM Session??? Do we need to bring our own coffee? I can furnish plastic wear, plates, napkins, cups; hate to see you doing dishes until midnight Edited August 1, 20187 yr by Grandpadave52
August 1, 20187 yr Popular Post Hope Steve is not too disappointed. The last get together we both attended had fine china, real silver utensils and Crystal goblets.
August 2, 20187 yr Wish I could make it there Fred. I'd like to see that shop. As for the SawStop demo, I recommend you pass on that. I'm sure you have much better things going on in the shop.

I'm getting the feeling that the phrase " hold my drink, watch this" is going to come up during the course of the day. The baker informed me she will be sending with me several dozen each, nut & apricot fold overs, whisky glass cookies, & bowties, plain & powdered. I did notice some really nice coffee mugs on WoodCrafts web site. Edited August 2, 20187 yr by DuckSoup
August 2, 20187 yr Author Not sure what all the goodies are that are coming, but it's possible we get some of those mugs. If we get into a "hold my beer and watch this" situation, I guess we can throw the main breaker.
August 2, 20187 yr Popular Post Y'all keep up this kind of banter and the rest of us are wondering what time to send in the Paramedics.
