Hello all,
Attached is an invitation to a furniture exhibition I am organising in Toowoomba, starting next week, from the 21st September and running for three weeks. It's at the USQ on West Street, all welcome! The official opening is Wednesday 29th at 5pm, and Laurens Otto, master wood carver, will do the honours.
Cheers

Should be very good. Frank does some nice work and is also very entertaining and educative. And of course, there's our very own Ruffly.
Could someone please ask David D if he ever worked in the Latrobe Valley? I once worked and occasionally sailed with a bloke of that name.

Frank is indeed a talent, a fount of knowledge, and entertaining!
Wendy won't let me down, but her piece is a surprise...:wink:
I'll ask David on Monday for you Alex.

No, no broken legs, but I did do in a fingernail or three, does that count? :D

And was well worth the wait, it is a delicate, finely crafted piece! How does "Fine Line" shoe rack sound to you Wendy?!?

Here are a few shots taken of the furniture exhibition.
The first one is a gallery view, showing work by Mockmickey, Frank Wiesner, and a bit of Dean Timms, and Jon and Sue Jesberg.
Next are a couple of works by David Dyson, who works from Crows Nest with locally sourced hardwoods.
More coming soon!
Cheers,

Fantastic Cuttinglisters, looks like a wonderful variety of wood that's been used, would've loved to get up closer to see the details, well done to all, thanks for showing Andy :2tsup:

Here's the photo of the Exhibitionists who were able to attend the Grand Opening and it was a Grand Opening too with approximately 50 people there, staff, students and the public. So lovely to talk with people who were genuinely interested. I had a wonderful night, meeting these fellow woodworkers. :U

Jon and Sue Jesberg, David Dyson, Wendy, Dean Timms, Andrew, Frank Wiesner and Laurens Otto.
