What a wonderful name for a place! Sounds like a 50s 'B' movie actor

Only 30 miles from me but the last thing I need is more tools
Hope the day goes well.

Says us all...
That's why, for a fair few of us, this is more of a social occasion, to meet up and talk cobblers etc
Cheers Andy

UPDATE...
Looks like we have Mike and Rene from Mac Timbers joining us with a selection of wood for sale.
https://mactimbers.com/Bill and Sarah Carter are among some of the remarkable planemakers who will be in attendance along with Richard Arnold etc.
Cheers Andy

About 12 tables , limited catering , only cake and drinks , no rolls or sandwiches

Total spend on the day was a massive £0.00
I did say I have enough tools

Carlton Scroop sounds like something from Dickens.

Glad to see you popped over, I'll mention the grub situation but apart from that I hope you liked it.
As it happens I had a round of sarnies going spare

Thanks to all who turned out to support this one, met and spoke to quite a few people and hopefully we will do another in October.
A mention should be directed to the very kind gent who gifted me some amazing tools from his collection, for that alone the day will always be a memorable one. Thank you

Besides the sellers and me there was some splendid bits and pieces to look at.
Richard Arnold has his early wooden planes etc with a demonstration of making a glazing bar.
Tim Smith brought some of his amazing flotilla of chariot planes etc The crowning glory though for me is always the "Infinity Cabinet"
Bill Carter and Sarah had a nice array of tools on show.
Plus not forgetting the items that the public brought to show one and all.

Cheers Andy
