    There will likely be a lot of honing going on. I'm bringing most of my stones and a microscope.

    Is your grinder a 110V? If so did you plan on bringing it along? I cannot bring mine this year due to a lack of space in my car.

    It's set up for 230 V. I guess I could rewire it for 110. It is only 8.6 full load amps at 230 V. we should easily be able to run it and Charlie's grinder on that one 230 V circuit if it is a 20 amp breaker.

    Long story short, the 110V would be best if you can. But lets see how this plays out as we get closer to the date of the meet.

    As my Dad had such a good time at the Iowa meet up, when I mentioned this one to him (after a heads up from Rolodave) he insisted we attend. So it seems, pencil us in!
    !! Enjoy the exquisite taste sharpening sharpening taste exquisite smooth. Please taste the taste enough to ride cutlery.

    Chris I believe I ride more than just about anyone, but north Texas is a really cold place at times in February,,I'll be driving my truck, leave the Harley at home unless a freak warm spell then it's two wheels for certain,,, randy put me down I'm booking my room, my wife just said I can skip her birthday/valentines for an epic event like this. Dave I made up my mind thanks buddy I'll be there. Tc. Bruno, my friend I'll be looking forward to meeting you even though. Am planning it anyway, just going to be in the US first now, and Ron. Can't wait to see some of those stones. Tc

    and chopperdave , if your going your driving by me so maybe a team drive

    At this point, given the number of cheeseheads, Iowegians, and Minnesotans who are planning on attending, it looks like we probably could rent a bus, or van, or camper and trailer for the trip.

    Sometimes RV's are cheaper than the big vans. Our church ended up renting a RV for a trip over a van.
