I would like to go this year…have never gone…lets keep each other in the loop…ALL WEAR OUR LJ gear and see if we can some deals—-

MARTIN…I think you need to start a US TOUR and LJ Booth at these shows—-talk about a crowd…we could all help man the booth for a few hours and then get in free…and maybe get “VENDOR BADGES”...

I am putting this in my “watch” bracket…so that i see updates…

I will try to be there on Saturday. Only thing that would keep me is a potental business trip. I should know pretty soon if the trip is going or not. Planning to drool all over the LN booth and see if I can get Matt hooked.

Scott, I would suggest Nordstroms or similar, but that would take away from the tool money.

Odie, only leather leashes for the dogs in this house. : ^ )

Oh come on you guys. I haven’t missed a show in 15 years. It’s the end of April every year. Blake and John Ormsby were there last year. Majestic Eagle is also close by and I would think could be there ??? There are a few others that probably haven’t seen this post that might be there.

Hell, the little woman and I make a mini-vacation out of this. It’s always the weekend we take the motor home out of storage and use it for the first time. There’s a really nice RV park right there if you’re interested. There is a couple of motels right there too.

Napaman, too bad, this is the show that used to be at the Alameda Fair grounds. It’s been in Sacramento for about 10 years now. Napaman, they’re even having a “Meet Norm Abram at the New Yankee Workshop Sweepstakes”. I know that’s dear to your heart.

It is at Cal Expo. So you take Business 80 in stead of the Reno Route when you get across the Yolo causeway. Make sure you stay on 80 and do not head south on 99 or go out 50 towards Tahoe. (Now that I see Scotts map, the instructions abover are more simple. Don’t get lost in the Alhambra Triangle)

BTW, Sacramento is Safer than Oaktown. I was in the Bay last week and cannot belive that anyone would think that the guy who shot 4 policemen is a victim of police brutality. Perhaps the news people were intervewing a few isolated people.

Also there is a place to click for directions if you follow the link in the first post.

If anyone needs any info or anything let me know. I’ve lived here for the last 25ish years.

You might need more than one day if your going to the different demos. They usually have several tracks running at once and sometimes there are two that you would want to see that are scheduled at the same time. This is why some folks attend all 3 days.

Guys,

I don’t think you want to meet at the LN booth. They haven’t really been doing large scale shows this season.

I wish I knew so many LJ’s were going to Sacremento, I would have signed on to do the show. Maybe next year? But that’s only if Todd makes the trip too. If I trek out to the show I want pictures of everyone cutting dovetails by hand!

You guys enjoy the show and make sure to let Robert Jevins know I think he has the best “shelf brackets” in the show.

Seeing this post makes me wish that I was still working these shows. I used to work the shows for The Woodworkers Choice and Oldham Saw. I built a lot of the displays for them during the summer months after the shows ended. Had a lot of fun at these shows. But then Glenn Moon (owner of TWC) died of cancer and Oldham sold out to Porter Cable and that was the end of the shows for us. We did not have LJ’s back then but it would have been nice to have had it.

are you sure…Did you ever see the first “Vacation” movie with Chevy Chase? You know the one where they spend a hellatious week on the road…all to get to Wallyworld…and when they finally get there they are sooooo excited…they pull in the parking lot and see NO CARs…so then they realize this is even better because they are the first ones there!!! They run with joy through the huge empty paking lot…to get to the gates and wham…the sign says closed…

They freak out…go crazy and break in…

I hope Wayne is not getting arrested right now.

Got my LJ’s tee shirt and “pennies” in my pocket…........... all ready for next weekend.
Is there going to be some kind of meeting place / time to kind of get together?

Or do we all gather around the “halo and bag”?

Lookin forward to meeting everyone!!!

The wood trailer is the first vender. I believe it’s Cook’s Wood. Matt you can see it in one hour. Studying it takes all day. Matters not to me, what ever you guys decide.

sounds good…i think with the bags over our heads we will all be able to recognize each other…dont you?

I am game for whatever…meeting everyone is the part i am looking forward the most…so 10am just INSIDE…sounds good…

The reason i say just inside…is that I get there at the opening moment—-maybe i can do a fast tour of the show…so i know what I want to go back and see later…in more detail. But then still make it back to the front gate area—-and if we meet just inside the gates then if you are already in your set…and dont have to go back outside to a ticket booth…

Actually, the wood trailer usually is just right in front of the entrance to the building…...

Is Wayne and Blake coming??? How about Scott, John and Brian???/

sounds like a great group, can’t wait to meet everybody.

Oh, yeh, I got my LJ’s tee shirt yesterday…........ I’ll be in full dress!!!!

The forecast is for rain on saturday. IF it is raining, it might be better to meet just inside after the ticket takers and hand stampers.

We could also agree to meet at one of the food areas around 12 or 12:30 so that we could catch any late comers?

Ok Guys, Did anyone buy anything from the snake oil salesman? He used to sell the Oldham Saw blades when we worked the shows with The Woodworkers Choice. What is he selling now? Glad to see you all had some great fun and I loved seeing the pictures of you all.

This was a fantastic time had by all. I really enjoyed “ALL” the LJ’s that showed up and as Odie said, we all actually got along. A lot of good friends made and look forward to seeing everyone again.

Yeh, “some” of us got “bit” by the snake oil man…............. and a few other places as well $$$$$$$$$$$

Oh well, that’s one of the reason’s we go, right????

Great pics Odie and the editing is great also.

Glad you could make it Blake, even if it was a little late !!!

It was good meeting you guys at the show. I apologize for not spending more time. I was with a friend and we were trying to hit all of the booths. I hope we can get together again and actually have time to discuss woodworking.

Take Care, John

I am sorry that I missed Saturday’s meet up. A couple other LumberJocks and I attended on Friday. I came back on Sunday and made my purchases. It would be nice to have this group of LJs meet at someone shop. Just an idea. Overheard an exhibitor saying that the show schedule was going to be cut in half. Hope they keep Sacramento on the loop, but I have to say Sunday was like a ghost town.
