Title: First Scroll Saw show
Post by: Judy Hunter on November 07, 2010, 08:51:03 pm
IT WAS WONDERFUL!! and so much FUN!!! My son and I combined our efforts. We sold twice as much as we HOPED we would.  Best sellers were the puzzles and the Crosses. And the people watching OH MY!!! ::)  I can't believe people left the house looking like they did.  I have done show for years with other products and never get tired of seeing the people.

Wow, Judy!  I don't think I've even made that many projects *yet* - and certainly not of that quality.  And I bet you had more under the table too.  Awesome display.  I'm glad to hear the show was successful for you.   :)

Your display is incredible, Judy!  Both you and your son should be proud!  It is great news to hear that you also did well and people appreciated your ability and beautiful work.  It is so positive to hear your great report and I am sure it will inspire many others to 'give it a try'.

Congratulations!  Sheila

Thanks for all the great comments.  Julie you asked about the uprights.....
They are my own design, 4 seperate units . conduit pipes welded into a 3x4 ft. square then 1/2 x 1/2 carpenters cloth wire laced to them.  Units held together with heavy pins. C-clamped to the table. then 1 inch styrofoam taped to the front.   too much information??  :D

Never too much information.  That's great.  I love my grid wall but it is too heavy and combersome for me to put up alone.  I like the fact that those are light weight and I could put them up by myself.  I'm not sure what  "carpenters cloth" is though.

Carpenters cloth is a fine mesh metal fabric.  The one she used has holes of 1/2"X1/2".  It comes smaller an larger, usually on a roll at ace hardware etc They will cut to length for you.

Variety is the spice of life and you sure did have it at your stand, a beautiful display Judy and I am pleased you did so well, when people see stands like this they find it hard to resist buying, and I bet you got hundreds of people asking who how and what.
Thanks for sharing Judy and well done
