​2017

Jerilderie Jaunt was held at Dooen and was a real success. This time we are looking at 3 jam packed days
Fri 27
Sat 28
Sun 29

That places it a little over 400 km w / sw of the previous 2

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/12/17/011471133a2cd06f1c948559c71df397.jpg

It is about 1/2 way between Adelaide and Melbourne on the northern edge of Horsham.

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/12/17/55c252b7c97d7406dcccc9f98a28a0b1.jpg

Not for the faint hearted, this will be the second year at the property and well, lets say she may still be a little rough when it comes to living quarters. I do hope to have some green grass this time round

There is a shed and will be at least 4 lathes on hand to use.

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/12/17/2e2315084ef279b7c3bead0820d96c27.jpg

For anyone who wants to rough it there is plenty of room for a swag, tent or caravan.

If you want to or can demonstrate anything over the event please let me know either on here or by PM

What will be

show and tell
Buy, swap, sell & give away
A yarn or three
Food, food and more food
Oppurtunity to use or learn on a lathe
Fire heap challenge
Oldgreybeard may give some photograpgy and photoshop lessons
Maureen is talking of bringing her spinning wheel
Raechell will have her dolls and be happy to show anyone interested

Demo's and Lessons
Plans are to have a morning and afternoon demonstration each of the three days. This is seperate to crafting demo's which may appeal mainly to the women.
I hope to have the following
1) Production Turning
2) Finishing
3) Box making Incra Jig. Doug3030
4) Thread Chasing

Open to other suggestions here above and below

In the crafting section
1) Pyrography
2) Painting (dolls making)
3) Hair Rooting (doll making)
4) Spinning Yarn

There maybe some evening tutorials as well such as photography if we can get oldgreybeard to assist again


What to bring

Anything for the above
A chair
A wood working project/s to do or show off
Metal working as well if so inclined
Areo guard and a hat
Some of your work

Scrap Heap Challenge

There is a heap of fire wood and cut branches as well as sheet material & scrap metal etc. The challenge to make something from that heap. What ever is made must be minimum 90 % from that heap and the scrap metal heap.

Two prizes will be awarded
1st place as judged by those in attendance
1st place as judged by the forum (if I work out how to do a poll. Should 1st both be taken by the same piece then the forums choice award will go to second place. If Springwater makes it he will be allowed to enter the piece he started on last year)

Any ideas or donations as to what the prizes may be are most welome.

Accommodation

Horsham will provide the greatest range and closest accommodation for those who do not wish to rough it. This is a wotif link but feel free to look up locations by other means
https://www.wotif.com/Hotel-Search#daysInFuture=0&stayLength=1&regionId=7742&destination=Horsham,+Victoria,+Australia


The house would be on offer but not sure where I will be with the Reno's

Any demos or workshops are more than welcome as would be a lesson on how to use a mill or metal lathe.

Please let us know your level of interest in attending.

If you have special dietary needs you can bring your own or let me know and if I can I will accommodate.

If you want to bring anything to contribute to the supplies you are welcome to do so. As some are travelling some distance this is by no means expected.

Spring is here. Before we know it summer will be here and Christmas will have been and gone.

That means .... we're getting closer to the next Australia Day Get Togethet.

Things are moving along here. May even be an airconditioned kitchen and longe this year round.

We seem to be on schedule to plant some runners in the coming weeks so the area between the shed and house could well be lush and green gor the day.

Im working on killing the forest in the parking area. This was several weeks ago

http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160907/b1d1c8b917fc2813438bb2ad0163a20c.jpg

Since then it grew so high little Tom got lost in there for a day or two lol.

I got bogged with all the rain and had to be pulled out by a 4wd. For thoae who saw the sry barron desolate waste land last year it may be hard to imagine water on this parched dry hard land but it happened

Guilty as charged, your honour!
There is no plan, this is the original which I traced and made templates from. I created some templates and cut out a couple of dozen units from 19mm Pine and bits of about 4mm plywood. Give me a day or three, and I will dig out the bits and pieces and knock up a scale drawing for you.

Oh, and a belated Happy Father's Day to you!.

No shed cleaning. Thats cool. Plenty of weeds to pull instead

That said ... for those keen to lend a hand there could be a tree house raising for the kids if there is any interest.

They have a tree chosen up the back corner of the block that over looks the railway line.

How is the grass down in your part of the world these days Dave?
Last GTG the game was to find a blade of grass, looks like there has been a fair bit of wet stuff falling all over Victoria in the last couple of months. If your ride on mower is a goer, we could organised timed laps of the backyard as one of the activities, or whipper snippers at 20 paces?

Anyway, Ann and I will be there, and hopefully Chris will be a starter, she may ride her bike down and stay with us in Horsham, haven't finalised that as yet.

Chris and I are going to FenceFurnitures GTG at Katoomba, then looking forward to your GTG in beautiful downtown Dooen.

Things are a bit tricky for us this year too.

Jools will be starting a new job next week so there are things she does not know about her schedule yet.

She might not be able to make it until after work Friday so we might be turning up late, or maybe I will turn up on Australia day and she comes up on a train or similar and I go pick her up when she gets there or .... several other things might happen.

I will keep everyone advised what is happening.

Appologies to anyone who may have misinterpreted a typo or taken any offense. My phone has a feature that leta me drag my fingers over letters and it provides the word with a degree of accuracy. That and big fingers on a touch screen and lacking the patience to proof read and correct before I post has lead to some considerable typos over time.

Come along ,its a very easy welcoming gtg.
Very laid back.
Dave and his wife Reachell are very accommodating and easy people to be around.
Both extremely nice all round.
Horsham is an easy ten min drive away with plenty of accommodation choices.
You will not be shunned or feel out of place.

Even if you have never seen a stick of timber you will fit in.

If things change I will let you know as I would love to be there.

I was just thinking recently about the Pittwater boys as we haven't had any posts for quite some time. Dirk was on the 3rd of Dec but Pete's profile says N/A so I hope all is okay.

The last I heard some months ago was they were drowning in work and going down for the third time.

I am happy to put my hand up to cook a meal while I am there just like I did last time.

And of course, like last time we will put in some money and/or food towards the cost of the weekend.

Cheers

Dave, how are you off for chairs, tables, tarps and shade marquee type of things?
Not sure if I took the urn last year, but I did take it to Jerilderee and to Fletty's sharpening GTG last year.
It is becoming a bit well travelled, happy to take it on a holiday if needed.

Getting closer by the day.

Urn would be great and many a hair has met its demise here since the last gtg. I have about 5 and 5 members in the family

Please bring chairs if you have one to bring everyone
