Topic tags/keywords: resource carving milling shaping turning finishing veneering scrollworking refurbishing joining sharpening Calling all Oregon and Washington LJ’s you know who you are. There is a woodworking show in Portland November 6-8.
I was thinking of going as I have a few days of free hotel space that I have to use or loose. Portland has much to do besides a woodworking show, so if you have a spouse who is not interested in woodworking they could come along and do their own thing while the show is going on. If you google it, there are coupons and admission is only $10.00 for all three days. Classes, demos, tools to buy – you know you want to :-) |

Surprisingly, I WILL be in Portland that weekend and may be able to get away to meet up with people. We will be there visiting our Grandma… so not sure I can make it to much of a show. However, we could meet up with anyone who would like to do a lunch, dinner, or coffee thing. If I did go to any part of the show… it would be on Sunday. I think. HAH! People would also be welcome to come to lunch and dinner with us while we treat grandma… she speaks no Engrish and I would be glad for the company. ;] -- Lisa Chan, custom cafts and yarn accessories, http://www.grippingyarn.com |

I’ll be there on Sunday, for sure. I’m helping in the Guild of Oregon Woodworker’s booth from 10a – 1p. After that I’m free. TroutGuy (aka Tim) -- There is nothing in the world more dangerous, than a woodworker who knows how to read a micrometer... |

I am trying to get there on Saturday. I went to the one in Seattle in April and really enjoyed it. I didn’t catch up with any Jocks though. We need a sign or secret handshake or something. -- ShawnH "In matters of style, swim with the current. In matters of principle, stand like a rock." Thomas Jefferson |
