Great Southern Bash (PARKING)

[paulm]

No Boggs down here

That could be a problem Waka :lol: - Rob

We don't have to make our own arrangements for those too do we :shock: :lol:

Cheers, Paul

 

[Paul Chapman]

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 ?

Hi Tom,

What I suggest is hone the blade at 45 degrees, getting it as sharp as you can, then I'm sure Philly, Rob or I will be happy to show you how to put a hook on it and get it working nicely.

Cheers :wink:

Paul

 

[wizer]

Yes please. Thanks

 

[wizer]

I'll bring down my boggs then

Rob, are you bringing scary sharpening stuff? My package from Matthew arrived yesterday. I can bring if required.

 

[WellsWood]

Since Tom's favourite subject of spokeshaves has been raised, would anyone be interested in having a play with the Clifton one's?

I too am interested in a lesson in getting the Veritas scraper to work properly, I have one too which I've never had a lot of success with and I'm going to need to use it in anger soon.

 

[wizer]

Oh, Because I'm an Impatient B'stard, I've ended up with 2 copies of the Alan Peter's DVD by Jeremy Broun. Would anyone like to purchase it ? £20 First dibs to Bash Goers.

Yes please. I have the concave one, which I'm very pleased with, but I'm thinking of getting the convex one as well for a particular job - would like to try out that one.

Cheers :wink:

Tom - yes, I intend to bring down the KIII and all the bits I've made for it as I part of the plan was to demo the system to those that were interested. I'll also bring down the little jig I've made to sharpen the small Veritas scraper blade (which is a sod to hold :x )...much the same sort of thing could be made for the No80 blade (which I've also got but won't be bringing on the day) - Rob

You all realise that there will be customs as you cross the Dorset border :wink:

Donation of a new shiny tool maybe to fill some of the empty drawers in the cabinet? - Rob

 

[Waka]

Guys & Girls

As you may have guessed from the address that I sent you that I live in a close. While there is space for possibly 8 cars outside my house, there will be 22 people coming to the bash, not sure how many cars that equates too.

I have spoken to my neighbours regarding the number of cars, so they will be understanding, but should space be a bit tight you may want to consider parking in adjacent.

Really looking forward to saturday, it has all the hallmarks of being a very successful day.

Also don't forget, you might want to bring something to rest your cheeks on.

 

[Blister]

I am not working this weekend 8)

and I have something to put my cheeks on

We're up to 23 now so one more won't really make a difference, so bring your cheek support and come along.

 

[Lord Nibbo]

23 plus you :shock:

I just made this so you know who I is :lol:

Take no notice of the blanked out bit, I just don't like advertising my name all over the net. :lol:

 

[maltrout512]

Waka, I have an unexpected family problem that means I will not be able to go. Sorry, I was looking forward to the bash. I'm sure it will go well. Many Thanks.

Sorry to hear that Malcolm.

 

[woodbloke]

Right. I've got a stacker box of stuff organised and got the camera battery on charge at the moment. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow...hope the weather gods will look favourably on us [-o<
Hope also that Waka's taken Tesco's apart, or at least hired a transit van to transport the grub :lol:
See you all on the 'morrow - Rob

 

[Philly]

Looking forward to it!
Cheers
