Hi all.
I will be honest and say I've tried to organise something like this before, and failed through lack of interest!
You lot though are a little bit different, and in some cases, a lot different
Here is the deal!
I'm trying to organise a Woodturning event In the School I work at.
This will be held on a Saturday (approx 10 till 4pm), date to be confirmed.
There will be a ticket price (approx £10, at the Mo.), but this will include a buffet lunch, and demonstrations from well known turners who are prepared to give their services free of charge.
Any profit will go to the Design and Technology Department, to enable us to provide more practical experience in the subject.
There will be access to some of the departments CNC equipment, and the laser cutter will be available (at a small charge), for members to bring pen barrels or boxes to be engraved.
I can provide some pen blanks on a "pay what you think it is worth" basis, and may look at a raffle and commercial sales of products, if there is enough interest.
I will be looking for attendees from any where, so this will not be exclusive to this forum, but thought we could have an unofficial get together.
It's all a bit "up in the air" at the moment, and I realise the attendance may be influenced by a fixed date, but if anyone is interested, could you please let me know here.
I haven't got all the figures, and I'm no accountant, but anything over 20 people should mean we are on!
Regards,
Neil
