Topic tags/keywords: question

I received an e-mail about The Woodworking Shows event coming to Portland, Oregon in October and may try and attend one day of this.

I’m sure many people here have been to one of these shows, what can I expect? I noticed Sommerfeld Tool is going to do a demo along with other well known suppliers.

If I’m unable to attend this show coming in October, I may try and hit the Seattle show in April.

Cheers!

Joel

I go every January here in Massachusetts…..You’ll meet all kinds of GOOD ppl there with all kinds of woodworking knowledge to share. You get to see all of the newest tools and can attend workshops to learn new tricks of the trade…..worth the price of admission and if you preorder your tickets , you can save some money there too …: ) Enjoy !

-- I'm absolutely positive that I couldn't be more uncertain!

Demonstrations are typically pretty good. There are also some very good deals there. Well worth spending a Saturday at the event. I actually go on both Saturday and Sunday both in Atlanta.
