You have got to turn up - i need advice on a couple of turning problems. So all experts on 4 sided patters PLEASE turn up.

Experts on turning 4 sided PLATTERS would be even more helpful:DQuote:

So I think I'll qualify to help you Bob. :2tsup:
Also may be because I've turned four small 4 sided bowls/platters and two 3 sided bowls. Still planning to do a few 5 sided ones.
Do you want me to bring them to show you?
Peter.
Please bring them Peter, My attempt will surely make yours look the goods.
Very interested in your 3 sided as I am trying to figure out how to make a 3 sided hollow form box with lid and finial. I will bring a round form of what I am wanting to turn - far easier than trying to explain.
Bob
Just the other day I made a list of the things I know nothing about. I just checked to be sure - and four sided platters is definitely on the list.
I am not sure of our availability at this stage, there's still too many things happening that are out of my influence. It would be nice to make it if we can as I will be away for the November one.
If we get there we get there.
Cheers
Doug

Here is a link to a Vic Woods demonstration https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH7MMc2K0HA Unfortunately the quality of the video is very ordinary (might have been taken on a phone :D - it also runs for 1 1/2 hours, but is very detailed.Quote:

Very late notice and my apologies.
And we hosted a GTG yesterday !
But Last Monday of the month is tomorrow(if my minders good check my dates)
BOX HILL RSL GTG 7 ish start all very welcome
Cheers Matt
See you there [emoji41]
Meeting of one last night !!
Very informative, I spoke with my self and I in regards to matters of stuff really important stuff thingy stuff.
Cheers Matt
Sorry mate, I'd say I'm on for next month but being Christmas time who knows, then I'd be in for January, but that's out west again (hopefully I can make it but unsure yet) so I'll say I'm looking good for Feb :-)
With out making this a religious thingy.
(Because I'm not a religious person)
Next GTG would fall on a Pagan Christian spent lots of money day of celebration.
Being December the 25 !!!!!
Might be best we have the next GTG in January 26. 2018.
But this might also clash with people coming back from Dave's GTG in Dooen.
So I'm officially throwing my hands up in the air[emoji15][emoji15][emoji15][emoji15]
I'm now open to any reasonable intelligent suggestions folks.
Cheers Matt
Matt, you forgot to add my birthday in your list so the 25th is definitely out for me.Quote:

Peter.
Getting a date that everyone can be happy with is impossible. I fully intended to come to the last one but things happen..
How about we do a 'made it through another year' special event Thursday night gtg at the RSL on Thursday Jan 4.
This way :
people lucky enough to have that week off work could attend,
it's far enough away from most other Christmas/new year's gatherings that hopefully people could attend
It slaps one between now and Feb without taking away from the dooen dates
I get to see all your friendly faces as I haven't had the chance for a while.
Obviously other dates are possible, but you gotta start somewhere so thought I'd throw one out there
I'll try and make it - Monday 25th December would be out:D
Bob
Sounds good and most New Year's Eve hangovers are gone by then.Quote:

We're leaving for the beach on the 6th so hopefully I'll be able to come barring late minute problems/emergencies etc.
Peter.
At that time of year I can't be sure this far in advance but it looks good in principal
Well I'm going to stick my head out
Next GTG Thursday January 4 BOX HILL RSL CLUB MELBOURNE
2018
Any complaints to be written in triplicate.
And forwarding to my private postbox number.

Well seeing as Gabriel suggested the date change, I guess that means he will be there and I can give him his Sheoak from Dusteater before I get tempted to use it. :rolleyes:Quote:

Will be good to talk to you all face to face rather than online so I can see the disappointment in all your eyes when I drag out my excuses for why I haven't had shed time! :-
Excellent we have possibly 2.5 members showing up.
I'm the half one I'm pretty sure I be there pretty being 51% sure.
Who else is coming to Gab party.
Cheers Matt
The trailer is packed, completely full, and awaiting in the garage for final tiedown. Remaining stuff is for last minute to put on roof rack so it looks that I will be able to come.Quote:
