Things are really coming together for the Chicago LumberJocks Meetup/Woodworking Show. The free tickets are on their way. Martin is going to be sending me some buttons to pass out to people interested in LumberJocks and we will also be the first event to use the new LumberJocks travelling banner.
If you are coming to the show, or future LumberJock events, you can look for this banner to find the LumberJocks.
We are going to be giving short classes throughout the weekend on:

I saw the photos from the Sacramento event and it looks like everyone had a really good time.
You can check out the pictures here and here.
You can look at the previous post in this blog for more information on the Chicago event. We need some people to at least say they are going to be attending the show. Ideally we would have some people who would be willing to sit at a LumberJocks booth for an hour or even give a short (15 minute) class. I need to get back to the people at the Woodwor...

I know just in the past few days we have been bashing the tv networks for not funding Norm and shoving hours and days worth of activity into 20 minutes. But I want my claim to fame, well at least a chance. Even if it is just online!
Please view my entry video, it’s not the most exciting, but to the point, and hopefully not too boring. I will be honest, I feel I am PBS material not DIY network material. Simply, I am the real deal, similar to Norm, and I am not an actor with a pret...

Aginst my better judgment, someone convinced me to set up at a local festival-craft show.The last couple of weeks we have been working hard getting ready for the show at Riverfest at Leavenworth. I was thinking that after the show we would be able to slow down and mellow out a little but, I think not. I got so many orders for signs that the next few weeks will be a bit hectic again. Well not “so many” orders, I think it was 10 or 11 but some of them want more then one sign. I ...

WARNING! Reading this blog and watching the included video will take 8-10 minutes of your life that you will never get back!
Bob #2 and I were meeting up last Saturday to attend the Edmonton Woodshow.
The show had offerings from Delta, Hitachi, Steel City, General, Dewalt, Lee Valley, Lie Nielsen and a mixture of local guilds and arts and crafts distributors.
Overall, the show was quite good. There was lots of machinery there and Bob and I were able to meet up with Jim Lindsay, inv...

Yesterday, after our bonfire breakfast (6:30 AM with our family, sitting around the fire laughing, eating), Rick and I headed to Toronto to the Woodworking Machinery and Supply Expo.
Over the past year Rick and I have attended quite a few woodworking shows in the region but I have to say that none of them have been like this one. First of all we had to have a special badge to enter. At the entrance door you had to show your badge AND they had to check it with a digital thingymajiggy to che...

Next weekend (Sept. 29th) Rick and I are headed to the Woodstock Wood Show. This wood show is supposedly the largest one held in Canada. And that’s pretty cool, since it is local!
I will be talking with some of the company representatives as well as drooling over some of the tools and watching some demonstrations.
Are any of my fellow Ontarians going to attend? I think the plan is to go in the afternoon, since I’ve heard that the crowds are smaller then. Also, I’d lik...
