Mike, I was happy to fill in. Your kind words make the presentation worth the effort. Thanks.

Glad to oblige, Joe. Thank you for your warm words.

Much appreciated, thanks, Joe.

Daryl,

Thanks for your kind words. The last moment fire drill would not have been successful without the generous help of Jim Moloney moving “stuff” from Windows to an IOS environment. MM

Thanks for the extra detail, Bill. To be clear, at this point I am neither for nor against the idea. I think that the proposal should be discussed at the board meeting. OTOH, you are the Show Chair. The board will do what it can to support the directions you think have merit.

An interesting idea, Bill. Of course, there are potential downsides to be considered. Possible breakage, damage, and theft to projects may occur. If one or more of these events should happen, who bears responsibility? Is it the exhibitors or the LIW?

The possibility of such a scenario suggests a secondary concern, i.e., the need to have show volunteers assigned the task of constantly monitoring the “touchable” exhibit.

Gentlemen, allow me to alter the salute –

To Charlie and Harry – Talented, big-hearted, and generous people. It is a privilege to know you both.

Several tool rests with 1″ posts and varying widths are available from Amazon, Rockler, eBay, etc.

Hi Mike – Would brazing or welding the pieces work? MM
