Great Southern Bash (PARKING)

[Waka]

Hello all,

I would like to join in this do Waka, hope you can accomodate one more. :roll:

I have arranged to stay at my sisters caravan in Swanage for a few days with the family.

It would be great to meet up with everyone again.

Cheers, Tony.

Tony, you're more than welcome.

All those that have shown an interest in attending the Great Southern Bash should have received a PM with the address, if I have missed anyone then please let me know.

There will be 19 in all if everyone comes so can I ask you to bring something like a folding chair, this is only so that you can sit down during lunch.

Would anybody be interested in the last couple of years of F&C mags, some British Woodworking ones also ?

May have some Woodturning and Woodturner too possibly.

Could bring them to the bash on Saturday but don't want to hump them all the way there and back if there's no interest !

Cheers, Paul

 

[wizer]

I'll take some please Paul! I'm going to need them

I'll take some please Paul! I'm going to need them

With the amount of reading you're planning during your forthcoming hiatus we will be expecting great things from you next year :wink:

 

[wizer]

Is that additional to the hours and hours I spend reading about woodworking on the internet every day ?? :lol:

All I need is the last 4 or 5 issues of F&C and maybe a few Woodturner.

 

[WellsWood]

F&C I've got - no problem. I'll sort them out for the weekend.

 

[SVB]

I'd really like some British w/w.

I have only really just discovered this one and it is head n shoulders above the rest in my eyes.

Thanks

Simon

Just checked and actually only have a few copies of BW which Bob (9fingers) had first dibs on, but a fair few F&C, so first come first served on the day for those.

Haven't decided on the turning ones yet, might take a flick through a few before deciding. Again if I bring some along it can be first come first served basis if that's okay, otherwise might get a bit complicated !

At least there seems some interest in some though so I'll make the effort to bring along what I can.

Cheers, Paul

One request for the Bash ......

Does anyone have one of the smaller LN Scraper Planes that they could bring along?

I typically use card scrapers for leveling inlay, use on veneered panels with wild grain etc - just wondering if one of these is a worthwhile investment and this seems a good time to ask given the assembled knowledge.

With thanks

I can let you have a look at the recently introduced small LV scraper if it's any help? - Rob

 

[SVB]

Yes please Rob - much appreciated.

What are the timings - lots to see and talkabout!

I also have a small request...does anyone have a spare length of 60mm OD tubing (sort of stuff that's sold by Axminster) that could be exchanged for a few beer vouchers?..I need about 4' of the stuff - Rob

I have a Veritas No.80 that you're welcome to expect if you want a budget option. Works well for me, though I'd actually like a demo on how to sharpen it is anyone wants to volunteer ?

PS: I think the only mildly interesting hand tool I have to show off is the Boggs shaves. Tho, I think Waka also has these? I can bring if not?

No Boggs down here

 

[SVB]

Tom,

Would be nice to have a look if you could bring it also. As you all know, it is one thing looking and reading in the catalogue but it is much better to see these tools and talk to folks who have used them.

With thanks

Simon

That could be a problem Waka :lol: - Rob
