Having a bit of a change around for this year.
Last year I was limited to 30 people due to the room the main demo's were in.
The demo and auction this year will be held in the main cluster area ( for those that remember, where the sales and eating area were last time).
2 areas will be available for eating and socialising (tea and coffee available all day, and possibly the odd can of smiffs!):whistling:

A workshop will be available with 2 scroll saws, pillar drill, small bandsaw, Graduate and small sip lathes, if anybody wants to play, or show a technique.
Trial bits of wood will be available, but if you want to make a pen, please bring a kit!:pray:

My Pro Edge will be available for sharpening, but please don't re profile my chisels.:sob:

If you want to bring one or two of your own tools along, please feel free to do so.


Laser engraving will be available if you want something on a box or similar, for a small charge.

I haven't advertised this anywhere else yet, but now have a capacity of at least 60!

Dan (Taylors Mirfield) is attending with a shop and Beaufort inks should be available. I'll have some native stuff for sale, and I'm in the process of securing a supplier of exotic blanks!

The sign one of the caretakers put up for last year is still visible!:funny:
Got a message today to ring a member of the public who is interested!:thumbs:
