I'll be there, but probably only on Friday, got other commitments for the rest of the weekend. I've gone there for the last 5 years. It's a great show. The work shown there is amazing. Hope to see you there!

went to the show today w/wife, wow do I have a lot to learn!!! probably going back tomorrow w/brother
-
Hey yguy, Tell us all about the show! What did you see? Did you run into anybody from the forum? Details... details... details!!!
-
Didn't see anyone from here as far as I know, since this was my first I was overwhelmed with workmanship, detail-detail-detail. I have so far to go to consider myself at that level. Picked up some nice thin cut hardwoods, several distributors there, and a few items I had heard of but never tried and saw some I didn't know existed for scrolling. I sat with Denny (a wood carver) for nearly an hour while he gave me free instructions on the proper use of carving tools a hobby I would also like to learn. I'm going back tomorrow (it's only an hr. from my home) cuz I know I missed alot. Quite a few saws on display. There were several guys there doing coin cutting, I had never seen that done before. The wife said"ooooh I like that, why don't you try that one", way too many times.
-
went again to Richland Center, met Mytoya, jeez, you'd think she was being paid to hawk their stuff there, she's been scrolling for 9 yrs. and sure helped me a lot, was dragging me from one vendor to another suggesting various items, got a foot switch I had been looking for, a few other items to make my scrolling easier and better looking - thanks again Mytoya will keep in touch!! (Note to Midwest Scrolling Show: next time hire Mytoya as a dealer rep.
-
I was hoping to get a report from Mytoya, Haven't seen her on for awhile.
Where are you Mytoya?
-
dgman - as of Sat she was in Chicago, didn't say when she'd return to Ca., probably away from computer
-
Hi All, I am just returning home from Chicago today. I took the Amtrak train. 3 days there and 3 days back.. I will post a link to pics tomorrow I am pooped.
@...yyyyyguy ... Did you plug in your peddle and get to work??? It was really good to meet you. I am sorry for holding you hostage at the show. As you can see I am very passionate about Scrolling. I bought a few new patterns and some wood I can't wait to cut some of it...I should have some projects to show in a couple of weeks.. Yippee
Keep in touch!
I love my Dewalt!!
-
Good to have you back Mytoya, Looking forward to you report!
-
Mytoya, peddle works great, took me a few times to remember NOT to turn it off at the switch - LOL
-
Glad to hear you are home safe. Sounds like you had a good time. Waiting for the pics!!! 8)

Hi all,
I have not had luck trying to post a link from my facebook page from the picnic. So I am posting a link to Rich Hutchinsons page where he has lots of pics of the picnic. I will keep trying to get my pics on this site Monday. I am on my way to a wedding and wont be home until Monday.

About the picnic... I had a Blast. It was so good to meet everyone in person and see different cuttings up close.
The finishes on some of the projects were perfect. I had the honor of staying a couple of days with Pat Lupori.
Her and her husband a great hosts. Scrollers are some of the nicest people I have ever met. I couldn't get enough of the show. I look forward to attending another show next year...
