www.LongLakeParkCampground.com- (http://www.LongLakeParkCampground.com-) I think I'm going to go up a few days early and do some fishing. SIGN UP HERE (http://cutscarvesandcolors.ning.com/page/cnc-patterns#ecwid:category=2841433&mode=product&product=13427063)

Welcome to Long Lake Park Campground

Doug (is a CarveWright owner and has welcomed us to his shop and campground, he has rebuilt all of the cabinets in his store using his CarveWright machine - they are a site to behold) and Jamie would like to welcome you to Long Lake Park! Mohican Country's oldest destination campground since 1919 with nature at its best.

Long Lake Park is built on 62 acres of rolling, wooded hills and large grassy fields. We center our fishing around our 60 acre spring fed glacial lake. Swimming is now done in our beautiful heated swimming pool.

54479

All of our 215 campsites have electric and the majority have water within a hose length. We have renovated with you
in mind and added new larger campsites that will accommodate any size RV, with 30 and 50 AMP service. We have also added several new seasonal campsites that offer you a "VACATION EVERY WEEKEND" that will save
you gas, and better utilize your camper. There are 2 overnight camping areas available...

THE MEADOW ... For the large RVs or Tents (level gravel sites).

THE PENINSULA ... Next to the water's edge for the angler. "not suitable for tents"

Long Lake Park also offers CABIN rentals. Six cabins that will accommodate 4 people and are furnished with all you need for your stay except your bedding and towels. NO PETS or SMOKING allowed!

Our natural glacial spring fed lake is an anglers challenge with Pike, Bass, Catfish, Crappie, Perch and Bluegills. Bait and boat rentals are available. Long Lake Park welcomes you to bring your own boat, but only electric motors are permitted. NO fishing license is required and our Bass are catch and release crappie must be 10" to keep them. The Lake Is once again open to the public for fishing and swimming for a daily fee!

Come and let us make Long Lake Park Campground your "VACATION DESTINATION". We take RESERVATIONS.

This place is ...


8.5 hours from St, Louis, MO
8.5 hours from NYC, NY
9 hours from Nashville, TN
3.5 hours from Detroit, MI
7 hours from Washington, DC

Hey AL it is only 8 hours from Shohola, PA ... . .

[Capt Bruce]

That sounds like a great location for an informative weekend Jason. Good luck with the Jamboree and good fishing!

[badbert]

I don't want to hijack this thread. But I have a bunch of questions about those cabinets!

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Then come to the event and learn about them.

[jpaluck]

Hey Jason

Looks like a good time..count me in and gonna pick stephen up on the way..not giving him a choice..he's driving

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Awesome John - looking forward to it.

[TerryT]

Darn!!!!!!why cancha do it closer to me???That sounds like my kind of weekend. I wish I could be there Jason. Let me know when you can get to the left side of the country. I hope this works out so it will be a regular event. It also sounds like one heck of a lot of work for you, Jason. Oh well, good luck and "Wish I was there!"

[jpaluck]

Floyd better post up

Gee I thought it was Rebel Yell in that neck of the woods!!!

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Connie ... you are welcome anytime.

[jpaluck]

LOL Might be..since there no trout

[mkculp]

I'm in. The local HackerSpace guys will probably be interested as well. I have a homebuilt CNC will probably have a new homebuilt laser finished by then. I've also been pretty amazed at what the Carevwright can do. This sounds really exciting.

-Michael

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Awesome Michael.

[wlkjr]

I got the camper and hopefully by next week I'll have my machine. But I think I'm 12
hours away. That's a lot of fuel.

[LittleRedWoodshop]

I will post the class list and who is teaching them in the next few days - might help your decision.

That is also the reason for the reduced price of the event - we understand that people will incur travel expenses that are a little higher - when you have to drag somewhere to stay along with you.

[fwharris]

This is located not far from the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Canton, Ohio..

[SteveJ]

This is just a little over an hour from home. Count me in! Great to have something close to home!

[katec911]

this sounds like a great time! I may just have to arrange it! question.. I would like to stay at the campground however no prices were to be found.. Please post if possible.. also I would be going with my partner but he won't be coming to the training but probably would spend the time fishing if that is allowed. So my question is would I still have to pay the 100 each or can I just pay for me.

[LittleRedWoodshop]

I will call and get the prices for the campground (will post tomorrow) ... no you don't have to pay for him if he just wants to come up and go fishing (my wife and daughter will be attending the event with me - it will be my daughters first camping trip).

This is the part of reason for Saturday afternoon being open to the public ... we plan on doing a Show and Tell and our final presentation with friends, family and the locals present.

This Announcement was made on the CNC Art Guild forum by Dragon Works Studio founder Michael Culp (The CNC Geek)...

Starting this year ... we will be building a CNC machine at the show. The very rough design of this years model is included here. As we refine the design we will be posting further images.

We are selling the 2012 CNC Jamboree Limited Edition design DVD now. This DVD is loaded with the plans and sources for all materials to build your own version of this machine ... it will be limited to 100 copies. As soon as the last copy is purchased we will draw from the names of the lucky purchasers to see who wins the machine that will be built at the Jamboree (this machine will have some cool features that only the Jamboree machine will have). Other Details to be posted soon.

http://i44.servimg.com/u/f44/14/04/28/42/screen28.jpg

Come and join in the building session. This will be hands on and we hope to be cutting with it before the end of the day Saturday.

The Z axis head is roughed in. It will be completely different in a couple of days. The rest of the frame will be pretty much as seen.

All parts of this machine except the motors, controllers and computer to drive it can be purchased at a local hardware store.

Randy is currently Editor in Chief for American Woodworker and Woodwork magazines, where he has worked as an editor for the past 11 years. Prior to becoming an editor Randy ran his own custom furniture business. Randy got his start in woodworking as a boy in his Dad’s workshop in rural western Wisconsin using mostly lumber they harvested from their own land. Randy’s first job out of college was teaching woodshop for a junior high school in the U.S. Virgin Islands—where oak were considered exotic and the shop’s workbenches harbored a thriving colony of termites. Randy received his M.A. degree in Industrial Technology Education from Appalachian State University with an emphasis in furniture construction and design. For his thesis project he build a Boston Bombe chest, using mostly hand tools. About five years ago Randy started exploring CNC woodworking and currently writes a regular article forAmerican Woodworker called “CNC Workshop” where he explores the creative possibilities of CNCs. Highlights from some of his articles (including some CNC project plans) can be found on his blog at www.AmericanWoodworker.com/CNC (http://www.AmericanWoodworker.com/CNC).


Presentation title – Pushing the limit switches, and other ways to enjoy your CNC.
Randy will present an inspirational overview of his favorite tips, tricks and techniques for getting the most from your small shop CNC including texturing, two-sided carving, working with small parts and creating complex designs using simple design techniques.

Lindsey is a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky’s College of Design. After a lifetime of adventures visiting historical landmarks and exploring cultural heritage, her interests lay in preservation and architectural history. This is what led her to pursue a bachelor’s in architecture and a minor in anthropology. She graduated top in her class, and at her commencement ceremony, wore ribbons celebrating her participation in UK’s Honor’s Program, the Chellegren Scholar’s Undergraduate Research Program, and Tau Sigma Delta, the College of Design’s honor fraternity.

She has teamed up with us as our resident artist. Her academic career in architecture has equipped her with the tools to pursue her creative visions digitally. She has expanded on her list of pastimes and hobbies with web building, illustration, graphic design, and presentation layouts. Currently based in London, KY, she is working as a freelance graphic artist and is investing herself in her church and family before she attends graduate school.

While she enjoys doing graphic arts, her passion remains in historical architecture. In the next year or so, she plans to begin the journey for her masters in preservation. Lindsey dreams of traveling the world, consulting on renovation and preservation projects. She hopes to one day, turn her old adventures of exploration into a career.

Michael K. Culp is employed by the University of Kentucky and holds the position of Technology Coordinator with the College of Design. The creative drive behind DragonWorks Studio; Michael is a dedicated husband and father of three. He takes pride in being a former Boy Scout turned pack leader and once held the title of Training Commissioner with the Boy Scouts of America, experiences which ultimately inspired a love of working with his hands and helping others achieve their goals.

A virtual collector of professions, Michael has worked as a programmer, technical service manager, sound-man, band manager, promoter, studio designer, prepress graphics engineer, art director, pizza driver, and even a furniture mover. A lover of anything geeky or computer related he has repaired, moved, or owned about every personal computer ever made. Michael’s varying experiences have yielded a extensive knowledge of graphic programs, operating systems. This knowledge has thus provided the unique opportunity to educate both small and large classes in the proper use of such applications.

Michael spends his copious free time redesigning the very idea of the CNC machine, reworking tool jigs for woodworking, and attempting to design a laser powered mousetrap to decimate the uncatchable smart pants mouse with which his family shares their home in Georgetown Kentucky. He has completed three working CNC machines and currently is working on what he lovingly deems as the- insert favorite eighties horror movie tune here- Apocalypse CNC. Michael claims that the idea behind the Apocalypse CNC machine is that it can be made completely with standard hardware store components found in your local area.

http://www.cncjamboree.com/images/1f5c286b44e4386c3b431b86f8f0a3e9_hoar.png (http://www.cncjamboree.com/CNC_Project_Build.html)

The future looks bright for Michael and DragonWorks Studio as the search continues for a permanent location to open shop doors with the public in mind. The idea is to provide the tools, facilities, CNC technology, and educators in the fields of design, art, and craft to people of all ages and backgrounds.

DragonWorks Studio is dedicated to making dream projects a reality for everyone.

Over the two-day event Michael will be teaching a hands on class designed to educate and inspire the building of your own CNC machine from parts and supplies purchased at a local hardware store.

Patterns, plans and instructions for the CNC machine will be available for purchase at the Jamboree, as well as, a chance to take the machine built during the Jamboree home.

* The parts for this CNC can either be created by hand with either common hand tools or using a small CNC machine such as the CarveWright ©.

[liquidguitars]

Thats cool Jason, Michael K. Culp and i just became facebook friends. Sounds like a good show is coming together now!

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Thank you Brandon ... we have been working very hard to put together the best possible event we could. I am looking forward to meeting everyone and learning from them.

[karossii]

So, I'm trying to put together my trip... where is everyone staying? I see the campground has tent sites, RV sites, and cabins... and that otherwise all the closest hotels are about 15 miles away.

[LittleRedWoodshop]

I am staying at the campground ... we were up there this weekend and it is a nice place. I will post some pics tomorrow. There are lots of things to do in the area if you want to bring along a friend, wife, spouse, significant other ... in the heart of Amish country.

[mav36]

And if you bring the whole family. they could always go here. http://www.cedarpoint.com/ and it is Halloweekends that time of year.

[CarverJerry]

Thinking about going camping at Long Lake for the Jamboree since I only live about 50 miles from there. I do have a question, can I pay for this Jamboree at the door?
This is Ohio and I know first hand how the weather can be, if ya don't like the weather just wait 5 mins, it'll change.
Hope it works out weather wise, sure would like to meet some of you guys and maybe learn more about the CW.

[LittleRedWoodshop]

CarverJerry ... all of the events are indoors and yes you can pay at the door.

[LittleRedWoodshop]

What is a CNC Jamboree? We started out like a lot of you as hobbyist CNCers and in time became very serious about the craft, art, use and function of CNC equipment. Our goal here at CNC Jamboree is to offer affordable and valuable training to everyone. To share new hardware and software and introduce you to patterns & projects that will blow your mind. We will also share machine demos with that will help you realize what a finely tuned and maintained CNC machine is capable of. The sky is no longer the limit.

What is a CNC Machine? Well you can use all kinds of techno jargon when it comes to this, but we choose to stay away from that and just say it like this. CNC is any device that is controlled by a computer. It could be a router, a laser, and embroidery machine, a long arm quilter (the list really does go on forever) … any number of things fit into this category.

Who can benefit from a CNC Jamboree? Anyone … In today's World CNC has become very affordable to hobbyists, artists, co-ops and small woodworking shops, it is on longer limited to large production facilities. The piece that was missing ... affordable training, we intend to fill that void, our training will appeal to novice as well as expert users. We know that the initial cost can be low and people sometimes get caught up in the excitement of just taking a machine home and they leave it captive in the box (you people know who you are) we intend to empower you with the knowledge required to make worthwhile projects, to set your machine and your imagination free, to feel the power of creativity and unleash it onto the World.

The Official T-Shirt for the event ... . .

[CarverJerry]

Has there been a count for how many carvers are going to this event? Sure hope the weather holds out for us.

[mtylerfl]

Has there been a count for how many carvers are going to this event? Sure hope the weather holds out for us.

I'm don't know how many, but I sure do wish I could come (I'll be playin' rock-n-roll with a band in Arizona during the Jamboree - dang it!)

I think it will be a 'lean and mean' group of folks that want to learn more about CW and the rest of the overall CNC world. Randy Johnson from American Woodworker magazine has a really cool presentation planned (he told me about it at the recent IWF Atlanta a couple weeks ago), along with our own Joe L. from LHR and many other key people with CNC creativity on their mind!

Have fun, and I'll miss you guys! (see you next time, though!)

[chebytrk]

As bad as I'd like to go, I've had some priorities that have kicked in so I won't make it this time around. Whomever goes take pics, notes and bring back lots of information.

[WoodenWizard]

All registered and ready to go. My buddy Timur and I will be driving up from Atlanta on the 27th. Looking forward to this event. I know Jason has put a lot of work into it to make it successful. On a side note I got the last cabin so you will need to bring a tent or camper. There are hotels nearby also.

Dave

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Thank you guys for the kind words ... it's getting close. I'll be headed up Saturday to finish up some stuff and get everything ready.

I promise not to mess with the other CNC machines that are being shipped in.

I know there are people coming from everywhere - furthest out is Vancouver, Washington. But we have people coming from Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, New Mexico, California ... and the list goes on.

We are going to learn a lot and have some fun ... I am looking forward to a bonfire on Friday night with some old friends and some new ones that I haven't met yet.

Still room for you folks that are "thinking" about it ... you know who you are.

[LittleRedWoodshop]

I am hitting the road in the AM - see all of you there.

[karossii]

I left a week ago or so... I am meandering that way, making a few stops to visit clients and friends/family... making it a 3 week trip overall. I've made it from Colorado Springs to Chicago so far, should be in Ohio on Thursday!

[LittleRedWoodshop]

Any problems with bringing my flip video camera and recording the class for the designer program. I'll be leaving my area in a couple of hours heading south.....rain today but nice the rest of the weekend. But it's Ohio, that could change in just a few hours, ha ha.
