Who is planning on attending this year?  I'm planning on taking that friday off of work and possibly running back down on Saturday.   This has been a decent show in the past.

[Cedarman]

I plan on going.  Don't know what day or days.  I have always found a wealth of info and contacts at the show.  Looking at new equipment always gets the wheels spinning.  Lots of parts dealers.  Also a good chance to pick up some new publications.  Sometimes a free coffee cup, hat, ink pens, note pads, etc. Plus enough candy and peanuts that you don't have to go out for lunch.

Dan,

Friday the 21st is my MDO/RDO, so I plan on attending.  If my buddy doesn't go ( he loves to drive), maybe I can catch a ride.

I've already sent in for my ticket. This is one of the top three shows of the year.

[DR Buck]

I got my 'badge' confirmation in the mail the other day.  I'm ready!

Check out the local farm auctions.  My guess is that will be your best bet.

I just looked at the exhibitor list. There is several there with wood waste grinders. A few more I want to see. Time to check airline schedules.

[Wallys World]

The wife and I are planning on being there don't know what days but will try to take that week off and just ride the bike up the coast through Cape Hatteras, N.C. then get lost in the hills on purpose. ;D

I'll start looking for for a place close to the site.  What time you up for?  Say shoot for 7:30 to 8:00 AM for breakfast?  It's about 1.5 hr drive to Richmond for me.

[Dan_Shade]

2 hours for me

7:30-8 sounds good

Dan,

Take good notes! 

I wanted to attend, but that is too far to come for a 4 hour class.  There has been a two day seminar in the past, but they shortened it this year.  I am definitely going to build a solar kiln sometimes this year.

[zopi]

Not gonna make it.

[Dan_Shade]

i've been drying lumber with a solar kiln for several years, I just put it in and ignore the lumber until I have some place to put it....

this class should be pretty good.  at least I hope.

Same here, or until I need the kiln for another batch...

[Kansas]

Just got the hotel and plane tickets ordered. Arriving Thursday afternoon and leaving Saturday  morning.
