It's been 2 years since I was last at this show and it's about a 1.5 hr drive to get there. It was well worth the trip. There are a lot of demos and vendors but especially some great scrollers. I had a chance to talk with several scrollers but especially enjoyed talking with Steve Good. What a great and open guy. A nice experience. Spent some money with Rich at richardscraftwood.com booth. Good pricing. Interesting guy. Emigrated from Rhodesia. Definitely a well organized and interesting show to visit.

I was there on Friday and brought along a friend who is somewhat new to woodworking. For most of the day I turned him loose to go his way and I did the same. 

We both had a great time and I got to talk to many friends while there. If I missed any of you, sorry. I was mostly just taking photos this year, as I had no need to buy any woodworking tools or supplies, but did end up buying some Flame Boxwood from Richard's Craft Woods. I had bought some a couple of years ago from him with the plan to make panel inserts in a jewelry box out of it for my grand daughter, but then realized that I hadn't bought quite enough of it. With this purchase, I now have more than enough of it, and I can proceed with my plans to build it now. Flame boxwood is quite rare. Although boxwood is plentiful, the red flame grain is caused by a certain bug infestation that leaves parts of the grain a very bright red on the otherwise plain nearly white background.

Nice picture of me talking about compound cutting.  You should have introduced yourself.  I would have loved to meet you.

This was the 19th year for this show and I have attended a dozen of them.  This was far and away the best and busiest one yet.  Steve Good is truly and amazing person.  I got to play with the new Pegas band and scroll and I meet lots of wonderful people.
