It is time for the wood shows season. The closest one to me is in two weeks. Will LHR be at any this year? Anyone else going to the one in Baltimore and want to meet up?

Check www.thewoodworkingshows.com (http://www.thewoodworkingshows.com) and it lists all the venders signed up for each show.

Hey gang meet my new neighbor!

Should be a fun time and having John's presence in the booth along with another carving buddy Brad should really help with meeting and talking with everybody.

What I've heard through the WoodWorking Show folks is that some areas with very low attendance and sales, they were dropped from this years show schedule...

Where I live, Waynesville Ohio, there is a festival in mid-October
that draws between 250,000 and 300,000 people in a two-day period.

There are about 400 vendor "stalls", marked areas on the street, where
vendors set up their wares. People come from all over.

Even though it is in the town that I live and the eight-bolck area is
within a few blocks of my house, I have never been to it - no place
for a wheelchair with all those people!

I've thought about getting a booth but have never prepared for it.

Waynesville is NE of Cincinnati and South of Dayton Ohio if interested.

This weekend is the Kansas City woodworking show. LHR will be represented.
I will be at the Lees' Summit woodworkers guild booth Sunday afternoon 2-4 or a little longer with 3-4 projects I made on the CW, nothing fancy. Stop by and introduce yourself. I made the large ( Lees' Summit woodworkers Guild sign) that will be hanging on the back wall of the booth with my CW several years ago. Again , nothing fancy. I still don't talk very loud, even after surgery, but at least I don't have to whisper like I have for the last two years. Come on by and say HI.

I wasn't too impressed with the wood show this year. Seems like the booths were smaller and not as many company's represented.
I did get to meet O'Salt at the CW booth,nice to meet you.
later Daniel

I did hear that it was in a new venue that was much larger than usual or not as well attended as in the past. They do have new management / owners this year.

Floyd will be in Denver this weekend.

Then, Jason Allen & I will be in St. Louis the weekend after.

For sure I will be there and will also have John Paluck and Brad Tavares in the booth helping out. Hope to see some of the local CW carves as well...

Yes it was good to meet you Dan and also meet many other C/W owners and had a good time doing it.

Hope the rest of the shows go good for use.

I didn't care for the location. For me , it is much harder to get to. It's almost right downtown K.C. The Overland Park location was much easier to get to , and just a few blocks off the majar look highway around K.C.

I've been told they have a few snakes in the building so we might need the medicine just in case! :p

See you there John for the set up of the booth and getting it ready for Friday!!!

Been out with the flu, and now trying to catch up on the forum....

Danged flu caused me to miss the Show for the first time in years - missed seeing you guys. Did lose some weight, though :)

The OP Center was booked this last weekend - maybe that's why they put it at Kemper - stupid idea.

I attended the Woodshows in the Detroit area for years, but evidently the crowds weren't big enough as there hasn't been a show in the area for a while...It was always a good one, too...

Any one willing to assist Joe Szegda at the Somerset NJ Woodworking Show? It is a bit much to handle for one person and he doesn't have anyone to assist him.

I'll be doing the Milwaukee Wisconsin show again this year. If anyone wants to stop by and help out that would be great. Or stop by to say hi.

Headed out to St. Louis. I'm excited. I haven't been to one in a couple of years.

Take it easy on my boys on the phones, they are minus me until Monday.
