    Nah but 'knit 1, purl 1' would be right up there with Sawdust Maker's suggestion of "hammer and nails"?

    I'm joking (it snowed here again today) -- but maybe Fletty needs something similar for his ski slope

    It's funny you should say that. We have had A LOT of rain and the back paddock and driveway are very soft and boggy. This could make next Sunday's gtg a bit difficult! When going through my options of WHAT will harden the ground, freezing it was briefly considered before being discarded as impractical? However..... you may have put it back on the table?

    Hi Crowie, I'm in contact with Ray every few days via SMS. He's in good nick except for his usual dropping of sharp things onto himself but Sue has a bad dose of the dreaded lurgy! His bench is nearly finished and looking good but, how he does it given his lack of mobility, still amazes me? They won't be down for the gtg. They had hoped that it would line up with some other family functions but that's not happening now.
    He has some timber stored at my place as "turning blanks" which I was supposed to sell at the last gtg but will definitely be sold/donated at this one. Pat will make sure of this as "what don't get turned, will be burned"!

    I am doubtful at this stage but let's see what happens this week.

    Contrary to what Fletty wrote above (and edited out) Wheelinround is not banned from the forums. He did receive a 1 week ban which ended 13th May for an altercation with a Moderator.

    Maybe someone might like to contact him and see what the real reason is for his unusually long absence.

    But no matter what don't come back and say he is banned as he definitely isn't. He may just be upset and not wanting to play any more.

    If for some reason he can't get on to the forums please let me know and I'll do what I can, when I can, to sort out his problems..... (with connection, nothing else).

    Cheers - Neil

    regarding joining systems methods -

    Do any of the attendees have a portable vacuum press setup they'd be willing to bring along? (ie something like this Project: EVS - The Concept)
    I'm in the process of researching vacuum pumps for making such a setup, and would love to see how others have done it (I already have the roarockit manual setup, but need to up-spec it to something far more capable).

    I reckon vacuum bagging classifies as a joining system doesn't it?

    you might want to look at what some of the woodturners use for their vacuum setups - specifically Dai Sensei

    I'm going to be sorry I can't get to this. Like many of us I use some of the systems being demonstrated and have seen others used, but I bet there will be a gem or two to be mined here. Looking forward to when there will be less demands on my time. Ahh well, one day. Have a great time guys. Looking forward to some unbiased reviews of what's presented.
