50'th ! Paul Bunyan Forestry Show - Nelsonville, OH.  October 7-9 2005


The Paul Bunyan show is one of best forestry shows I've ever attended.  We've made a lot of post with lots of info on the show. 

I have updated the links to the Nelsonville Hocking College web site and the Ohio Forestry web site the first post on this thread.

Here is another link to a thread of posts from last year's Paul Bunyan show.

Paul Bunyan and no Chisel!


A lot of Forestry Forum members gather there.  Mary and I hope we can make it again this fall.

I'd sure love to come back to the Paul bunyan show this year but just cant make it.  SAW MILLER , i imagine before the show gets here, one of the sponsors will be designated as this years Forestry Forum meeting spot. Last year the offical spot was logrite tools, but you will find forum members at any of the other sponsors.  Tell that bibbyman to where his forum hat to the show instead of the wood-mizer hat. Everybody at wood-mizer already knows him anyways. :D

Maybe I could be like those race car drivers after they win a race,  I could wear the hats of all the sponsors by switching every few seconds - just for photo ops... :D

The Paul Bunyan show is always on our list but we've only been able to attend two in the past 5-6 years.  We've just got a mountain of logs in this week and expect more.  We are working on a building extension and are planning to attend the Midwest Forest Ind show comeing up in a week or two.  LOTS to do!!

Maybe, just maybe, that is enough of a 'sob' story to get you two tickets.  :D :D ;D

The cost of the tickets are on the small end of the list of costs involved.

There is the 18 hours of driving one way that we'd spread over a night on the way getting there and another getting back.  Then we'd be there for two days so that's 4 days so far. 

Then it takes Mary a day to get ready and take enough "stuff" to homestead in Alaska.  Then anther day when we get back to unload, unwind and get back into work mode again. 

So that'd be 6 days out of work with 4 nights in a motel room and eating in restaurants – not to mention $2-300.00 in gas.  Money going out, none coming in. :-\

I plan to attend the show on Sunday.  I have been the last four years but havn't had the pleasure of meeting any other members.  I would prefer to go on Saturday but my daughters band is playing in the West Virginia mountain state forest festival in Elkins WV.  So I will have to attend it on Saturday and try to make the PB show on Sunday.  Hope  to meet some of you members there. ;D 8)

I wasn't even there at Paul Bunyan this year and I got this picture.



Here is Burl Thatcher with some of the furniture he build at the Paul Bunyan show 2005. 

I guess nobody seen him work on the Lathe-Mizer because everybody was looking the other way. ::)
