Craft Fair

[keefie]

I did the first day of a three day craft fair today with my woodturning club. Sales were pretty poor as there wern't many people coming in, I think they all went to the beach to cool off, Here is a couple of pictures of the display and a picture of part of my display.

Looks like a lot of great work!  Too bad the sales weren't better.

[ChelCass]

Wow!  Nice display, great variety.  Sure hope you get more customers the next two days.

[heppnerguy]

a really amazing display. You not only have a lot of great things, but your variety of styles and different type of things, blows me away, for sure.

Very nice work

The wood turners club near us have a 3 day display and sales every year.  Every year we go but I never see any one buy anything.  Do you normally get good sales?  Great display and your things are excellent.

Holy smokes, there's lots to look at there. It seems to be a bit disportionate the number of turners to the number of scrollers, but, it looks as if you did all scrollers proud. Personally, I've never sold anything at a showing, if it wasn't booked or advertised as a sale, people just came to look at what was there.

Beautiful work

Those sure are purdy. What was used for the windmill. I did the same one but not as good and had breakage.

The Windmill was made from 3mm birch ply and cut with a #1 FD UR blade (and I was lucky - no breagages.)

 

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.  There are 9 of us woodturners displaying there, but only one of us is a scroller too, so I had to make nice things to uphold the name of us scrollers. (hope I did ok.)

Keefie:

You upheld our name and more on this one, my friend.

Well done

[heppnerguy]

No kidding. I surely could not represent scrollers as well as you did as a turner.. very impressive
