Northern project 2019 Date set May 4th

Oliver05262 · April 29, 2019, 09:37:41 AM

I first want to thank Claude for doing all he can to help others deal with all the flooding. At such times, family, friends and neighbors come first. Our prayers go out for all who are affected by this calamity

My wife and I are still planning to be at Bruno's on Wednesday afternoon, rain or shine. Thursday and Friday's plans have changed and the curved-wood project may be on hold, but there are other projects we can work on and as Bruno said, maybe some timber frame lessons. Certainly there will be camaraderie and a chance to meet and work with other forum members.
Saturday's get-together is sure to be a time of fun and learning, and you won't go away hungry from Jackie's lunch. The weather is promising to be cool and damp, so bring warm clothing and a rain coat and be prepared to have a good time. Bruno and Sheila have been planning this event for quite a while, and we'll try to make it a memorable time for all.

I am sorry to report the workshop on curved building. My community is in heavy flooding. Water peak is plan for another 2-3 days. All the region is touch. Many cities are in an emergency status. The army is involved. A city not too far had a dike that open up; the emergency team evacuate 5000 persons in 30 minutes !!! No fatality. So I am helping around since my own place is not touch.
I will try to set a new date early this summer. Keep in touch and sorry for the inconvenient. Claude

At the end of the road is a ferry to cross the Outaouais River ! By the phone post you could imagine the distance.

I'm trying one more time to see if any one could haul a few maple logs up to Bruno's outing on Sat. Oliver offered but but now can't because of other commitments. We live 5 Mins off of I-91 if anyone could swing by we'd appreciate it. I just can't afford to pay trucking for my trucker to deliver them.
Curved Wood it's good you can help with the bad flooding there. I'll pray that you'll stay safe and the suffering it'll cause to family's there.

Crusarius · April 29, 2019, 10:42:22 AM

ed_k you have anymore details on the logs? I am thinking when you mention trucker they are probably not going to fit in the bed of my F-150 (short bed)

Yes but for only a few hours. Not long enough. :D :D :D You must have had the lid off that bottle. :D :D :D

tule peak timber · April 29, 2019, 07:40:24 PM

Meaning at least I could still get the lid off. The drive to the airport at 3 am was brutal.... ;D

Ed_K · April 30, 2019, 08:59:08 AM

Crusarius, No, there all cut 10' 6" and 12" to 20" DIB. I guess we'll have to talk about it at the get-to-geth'er on Sat. Thanks.

Crusarius · April 30, 2019, 09:06:23 AM

oh, thought they were going for the get together. Figured 91 adds 15 minutes to my trip so I could possible deliver them to the gathering. But would definitely need a trailer for that load.

Bruno of NH · April 30, 2019, 01:37:56 PM

I have a project to do if anyone wants to still come on Thursday And Friday
An 8x16 post and beam shed

Jim_Rogers · April 30, 2019, 01:39:11 PM

I'll be stopping by on Thursday afternoon for a short while.

Filling sand bags with Denise for the flood. Today my back is a bit sore. A lot of generosity from the public bringing food, water etc; even from restaurants. Appreciate life when you could...I could tell you that for some others life is no fun and for a while (second major flood in the last 3 years, flood over 100 years probability ). I wish I could go with you guys on the Bruno's project. Good gathering. Put some pictures. Claude

Bruno of NH · April 30, 2019, 02:39:00 PM

Claude
Payers to all folks in your community.
I'm sorry for their hardships .

petefrom bearswamp · April 30, 2019, 05:53:23 PM

Another monkey wrench in the works.
Cant make it too much on my plate even at 70-11
A shout out to all who get there hope it is a rousing time.
Maybe next year if I'm still above the sod
DanG!

Bruno of NH · May 01, 2019, 06:41:27 AM

Morning Folks,
Everything looks good for the 4th
Have two venders coming in Woody's Equipment, and Rheil Steel.
Sawing demo and music from my friend Mick.
Good food and fellowship .
The weather doesn't look good for Thursday and Friday . I will be around if anyone still wants to stop in just send me a pm.
Bruno

Hey folks--have a commitment I can't escape, so will not be able to make it! Bruno, you're a stud for putting this together. Will be there in spirit and in person next time...
Take lots of pics so we know it happened. All the best, Rob.

Sixacresand · May 01, 2019, 10:18:10 PM

We're about half way there. See y'all Saturday

Crusarius · May 02, 2019, 08:47:09 PM

Well I am heading out by hopefully 10:00 tomorrow morning. Who all is camping at Bruno's? I will be.

I figure 7 hours on the road.

doc henderson · May 03, 2019, 02:31:46 AM

Bruno thanks for putting this on, and I wish I could be there to meet you and all others. I am working 7 out of 8 days and nights due to issues.

Bruno of NH · May 03, 2019, 05:51:41 AM

If anyone coming could bring some ice for drinks and maybe bring some drinks that would be great.
I will have a log on the mill ready to go

Oliver05262 · May 03, 2019, 09:31:38 AM

I'll bring some bottled water, and Harriett is sending a dozen muffins she made for coffee break...............and a package of cookies. Nobody is going to starve!!
