When Nick put his hand up to bring the saws my first thought was "that'll be the last we see of the saws" and then I realised to my shame that it was a genuine offer :- .

I drove through Yass on my way back to Sydney about two weeks ago but did not stop at Yass as that was just way too far from Sydney for the toilet break. :U

Just cause you have a country residence doesn't mean you need to bring your shyte to Sydney :p

[fletty]

I have also acquired a loose handle fitted with a full set of medallion and split nuts that was also to be gifted. It is by far the most comfortable handle lve ever held but maybe that is because of the lack of a blade.......!

I think it's a little early to call out the weather. But I will agree us shed type people don't consider going into the house as a first option if the weather turns bad.

My guess it has something to do with nature or evolution? :lbs:

.......us shed type people don't consider going into the house as a first option if the weather turns bad. Or as a last option, particularly next Sunday. :D

Hi Gents.
Is there anyone coming to the Grand Event that resides in Brisbane.? I have a pieces of Crows Ash that I would like to give to Luke Maddox for a couple of small round tables he is making for himself. 1/180x30x2000
It can be cut into 4 smaller pieces if need be.

Forecast for next Sunday (at this stage):
Partly cloudy
20% chance of 0mm rain (which means that we may get a tiny shower)
Temp max 20°

I expect that will get refined as we move closer to Sunday, but the day looks good.

The forecast has been changing a bit as the week progresses. Now it's pretty much back to what I quoted a few days ago:

Max temp 19°
Partly cloudy
Light winds
20% chance of 0mm rain (i.e. maybe a little drizzle, if that)


http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/forecasts/katoomba.shtml

Now I reckon 19° is pretty pleasant (particularly in the shed), but you lowland pussies might want to bring a jacket. And remember, the weather can change very quickly up here, regardless of the forecast.

[DaveTTC]

Gloves - check
Thermal underwear - check
Snow jacket - check

Hat - check
Vest - check

Yep I'm already to go

"the weather can change very quickly up here, regardless of the forecast."

'Shmiller showed up this arvo, and insisted on showing me some saws, and how well they work. Deeply suspicious of being set up for an auction tomorrow, I agreed.

What I wasn't expecting was his insistence on using DE with it.

http://www.woodworkforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=363941&d=1448097154

[62woollybugger]

Looking foward to it. it's a shame Fletty can't make it, as I was looking foward to catching up with him, the office has been so quiet since he retired.

[FenceFurniture]

I reckon the weather right now is probably the way it will be tomorrow. Misty, occasional very fine precipitation, nothing worth worrying about in the excellent company of ~2 tonnes of wood-lovin' humanity. Apart from the permanent tarp over the deck, there's another tarp up (in the usual format) which is a continuation of the deck tarp.

Don't worry about it - will be coolish and quite pleasant (particularly in contrast to yesterday).

[Repliconics]

Good morning Guy's.
I'm getting ready to go to the Tasmanian Vintage Motorcycle Rally in Ross.
Looks like it should be a nice day down here.

But I still wish I had made it to the GTG.
Hope you all have a great day of it. :2tsup:

Another Top Day for the Woodwork Forum in Katoomba...

The early mist didn't deter the woodworkers gathering to both chat and meet some old mates & a few new faces, which was great....

The numbers were up again on past attendances; the host & hostess were welcoming as usual [THANK YOU]....:2tsup:

The new deck [aka dance floor or wharf] withstood the weight test, though will now need cleaning....:C.....

The swap, buy and sell stall was well supplied with good trade.....:roll: .....

The demo's were very much appreciated, BUT NOT THE SAW DUST by the owner in his ever well kept shed.....:~.....

A special mention going to Paul [Bushmiller] for the handsaw auction & chisel auction, plus to Alan [Fletty] in his very generosity support even while he wasn't able to attend....:;.....

While I only traveled a half hour up the hill others came from the Northern Beaches, Sutherland Shire, all across the wider Sydney, central NSW and as far as southern Queensland and Victoria.... :2tsup:....WHAT A TOP EFFORT GENTS!!

I've attached some photos for those who couldn't make it and those who were thinking about, sorry, but you've missed a top day so please come to the next gathering....they're great fun....cheers, crowie

My little score from the weekend aside from a great time with a great bunch of blokes and partners where appropriate

Something for turning

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/21/4b02beec1eb24e2e1a26924acfb971bb.jpg

Well thank you all for coming, particularly those who travelled spectacular distances ('Shmiller, DaveTTC, although he was kinda passing through). Even rwbuild has a 2½ hour drive each way.

Without your participation they wouldn't be the great days that they are. :clap:

Excellent to see some new faces too - Pittwater Pete, Dirk Pittwater, 62woollybugger (still don't understand the name) I hope you find that meeting some faces changes your forum participation and enjoyment.

Lola and I feel very privileged that people make such large and regular efforts. There's quite a number of 6 timers now.

Just adding my thanks to Brett and Lola for hosting the event. This was the sixth in the series and I still get a buzz from finally meeting up with the people with whom I have had contact through the Forums. This time in particular I really appreciated catching up with Hiroller but also the other newcomers (to me) Pittwater Pete, Dirk Pittwater and 62Woolybugger (thanks for the name explanation).

Congratulations to those who purchased items at the auction. They included Orraloon, Ozhunter, Pittwater Pete and last, but by no means least, Fletty. Also thanks to 62 Woolybugger and Sawdust maker who purchased saws outside of the auction. Thank you to all losing bidders, because without you we have no auction. I trust all of you had some fun or a least a little giggle.

Thanks to PacMan, who had made a couple of excellent purchases that very morning at a local market and was so flushed with success that he donated two Berg chisels for the auction to go to a deserving charity, which was Dave TTC. This was because Dave is being messed around right royally by his employers.

Thanks to IanW, who donated the RH Davis tenon saw, and the proceeds of that sale will also be going to Dave. I should mention that there was another donation made separately for Dave, but this was done anonymously so I won't mention any names as I don't want to embarrass him and his son.

Dave still manages to get around to GTGs and wood shows despite all his woes. Thanks Dave. I hope the work situation sorts itself out as you deserve some stability in your life.

As to the rest of you regulars, great to see you again.

Regards
Paul

[DaveTTC]

Thanks Paul and everyone else. It is humbling the way so many have rallied around particularly when I never expected it.

You guys and the few gals are truly my family. When I went to the service for my brother some months ago nothing mafe me happier than seeing one of you there. In the depth of sadness it pit a big genuine smile on my face to see him there and know all the support I have here

Thanks again Brett nd Lola. Now I guess its time for me to share some pics from the weekend

Thanks to IanW, who donated the RH Davis tenon saw,



My saw was hand delivered today by 62Woolybugger. Many thanks to everyone involved but especially Brett, Lola, Paul, Mike and Ian. When it was delivered, it was a stinking hot day and I was juggling finishing the stormwater drainage on the shed and babysitting, which I admit is an unusual combination. The Bubs were in awe of Mike and remarkably polite. It took a while for it to sink in that he has an uncanny resemblance to Santa in mufti and the kids were just hedging their bets!
l am already planning my next, and much bigger, saw rack!

My saw was hand delivered today by 62Woolybugger. The Bubs were in awe of Mike and remarkably polite. It took a while for it to sink in that he has an uncanny resemblance to Santa in mufti and the kids were just hedging their bets!
