Off to the fair - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

CanadianScroller · 08-06-2008, 01:15 PM

Three days of demos at the Chilliwack Exhibition this year.
We always get lots of interest and some people even dust off their saws once they see what fun it can be.

I know Chilliwack is a long way off for all of you but you are more than welcome to visit

I will be there all three days from 9 to closing.

I might take my laptop along so I dont miss out on the message board

See you at the fair.

Have a safe trip. Keep those demos going.

Drat, I'd have gone along if only I'd been given a bit more notice. Now my social diary is just toooooo full.

Have fun, Carl

The Salt Lake County fair opens today, I have some stuff entered so maybe, just maybe I will get a pretty ribbon!

So close, yet so far away! I was planning a jaunt up to Vancouver this weekend, but am not going to have time. Would have been a pretty easy and fun detour.

Have fun!

If only I'd known. I just put the jet

in for service this week and now Carl wants everyone to come to Canada and see him cut at a public fair.

Good luck Carl and make the sawdust fly!

TY everyone I would have paid for airfare for everyone to visit but alas my investments fell through.
My lotto ticket was won in Quebec and Ontario so I will have to adjust my pension plan.

I will take some pictures and say Wish you were here.

See you Monday.

Carl . Unfortunately we didn't win the lottery either so I'll have to resort to the ferry I'll be up around 4:45 am to be in the reserved line up at 5:45 am. It gets into Tswassen around 9:30 am, another hour or so to chilliwack . Should catch up to you around 11:00 am . Have the coffee on . I'm an old guy so it should be easy to spot me wandering aimlessly around . Grey ball cap . If all goes well , I'll see you manyana .
