The hammer in was totally worthwhile. I'm planning on attending again next year. If the meets were on consecutive weekends, I think that I would link them. Pulled pork and brats served there too!

Just got home.

Gotcha. Packing it now.

Sorry to hear Shaun. We'll still be there when you arrive.

Haven't heard anything definitive about whether Ron is coming.

Do I need to bring a microscope?

With all of the people on the road already, I keep doing mental checks to make sure that I've got the dates correct. I plan on leaving early, early, tomorrow AM.

We have already joked about this Harold. If Texas secedes we plan on digging a tunnel the last 2 miles from OK.

Tomorrows high here is 16 F. It will probably be in the single digits when I'm...

I'm excited. I'm going by a different route this year, weather permitting.

So I guess that the cup was to prove that the sausage was really in your possession.

I just figured out that I'm going to a knife makers hammer in March 9-10 ;http://www.traviswuertz.com/?page_id=16704 Not much time to rest.:boohoo:

I have some questions about adjusting loft height. I started a new thread in brushes so that the rest of the membership could benefit. ...

That's why I ordered the knot, to experiment with loft. I've never set a knot before. Seems like it should be easy, but it never hurts to listen to experience. Didn't know about the hang it upside...

You were sitting right beside it when you were grinding your razor. It did have a drop cloth over it if I remember correctly so you are forgiven.

I don't know wood well enough to know if pacific yew would be a good choice. But yeah I'd say if you think it would work I'd like to get a piece from you. That will mean more to me than a blank from...

Just ordered a brush knot to possibly make a brush at the meet. No plan on handle material yet.

I think you still have to refine a bloom first before making the crucible if you are starting with sand.

Right. It's a pretty major investment in time also. Build the kiln, then fire it all night to end up with a bloom, then fire it for another day for the wootz.

The all nighters could be fun, but...

Don't you guys know a nagura when you see one????

I have a new sequence where I first make it into a ~quarter hollow, then a half hollow, then a full hollow. So you will get all of the practical experience of doing the first two grinds before you...

I've forgotten what time we go to the restaurant, but I'm thinking 8:00

We meet for breakfast in the morning at the restaurant mentioned earlier in the thread.
...

I don't think it's necessary Tom. We've always done fine with just Charlie's stick welder.

I'll help you.

My recollection of trying to reserve a room at the Twilite was that if you did get ahold of someone they would listen to you, but after getting off the phone leave you with the distinct feeling that...

I try to spend most of my time at the meet helping others, but I'm in on the welded cable razor project as time permits. I have welded cable successfully before, and have a couple of pieces of non...
