I don't know what the heck I am doing. I think once you open it if you click on the picture it will run. First show was awesome. Hope I don't run out of stuff before the final one.

bandaideman Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Looks great I can see why you did well. I never had a spread that big when I was going to shows. I need to get back at it. Not done anything since moving last couple years. New state new things to learn. Your work stands out Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmmcrafts Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Nice set up Dave and good to hear that it was a great turnout for you.. At first the video played only a 3 or so second clip and it was small sized.. then I clicked on it and went full screen to a 55sec. video.. I think you did good on the video.. Thanks for sharing.. and good luck at the other shows.. Hopefully after the last show you'll need to take home empty containers that once was full of your stuff, LOL Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockytime Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 WOW, I went to Hobby Lobby today and it looks the same. How many lifetimes did it take to cut all that? I am impressed! Dave Monk and OzarkSawdust 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjweb Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Wow that is beautiful, I never seen that much product for one vendor, You must cut 8 hours a day, I can see you running out by the last show, RJ Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgman Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Holly molly Dave, I think you have set the bar for sure! If you start running out of stock, start moving out tables and displays so it doesn’t look empty. Great looking display!

scrollingforsanity Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Excellent work Dave. Nice setup as well. I like the racks you have to put your plaques and pictures on. Glad you did well. grizz Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzarkSawdust Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Holy cow Dave!! What a spread!! Do you sell at places all year? Or do you build up inventory for these four shows in the fall? Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 WOW that is an amazing assortment of work. I am blown away. Towards the end of the long table hanging up you have a Star Wars characters and next to it on the right hand side there is another impressive piece with a lot of characters, who are they? Just interested. Marg Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to know what to make and how many. By the time I am done the fourth show my inventory will probably be slim which is a good thing.

Looked at the video again, actually several times, and all I can say is WOW!!! I think I have a new hero! You made a comment that got me thinking, a very rare and dangerous thing, you did an "art" and jazz festival. As a new Scroll Saw "Artist"...I could show at "Art" shows and festivals. That would be a whole new client base apart from craft shows and flea markets. That idea had never crossed my feeble mind until you said that...Thank You Dave!! This scrolling thing is a sickness...it's pulling what's left of my brain in 50 directions all at once! Exciting...I like it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am totally done fighting the elements. OzarkSawdust 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edward Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 That is one large display and quality work, never seen that big of a display before and many items to choose from, good luck in the future shows. Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennisfm56 Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 The Texas A&M box early in the video, do you have a separate picture and price? I have 2 friends both alumni that might be interested. Definitely a Texas worthy spread. OzarkSawdust and Dave Monk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
