Sheila and I will be there on Saturday!
We have the Wood-Mizer team bringing us some supplies, ya know, blades, belts, grinding wheels, etc, etc.
We'll probably be wearing Wood-Mizer hats. (not sure though)
We went to Boonville last year and spent almost the whole day there, there's a lot to see.
Even learned a few things about running the Wood-Mizer!
Hope to see some of you guys there.
I`ll also be there on saturday, be wearing my forestry fourm hat and watch for
everyone.

Sounds like you'll be hard to miss twobears :D :D
I'll be spending most of my time at the Baker and Woodmizer Booths trying to work a deal ( or get worked over myself!)
My lovely bride has given me the OK for a new mill 8)
snogrumer,
I just noticed your handle and avatar. ( boy am I observant!) Looks like a Tucker? I run a Bomb. BR 160.
I hope we can meet Saturday, we'll have something to talk about!
The Logrite clan will be there. We have a booth somewhere in the infield. I will have Brownies for FF members if they come and say hi.
We will be with Carl Neutzel Services.

Moosehunter ... that's the Tucker 2000 I run for my club. We also have a 160 we use for our trails. I'll be there Saturday too as long as I don't get called into work.

Sheila and I looked for Logrite, but didn't find you.
However we did come home with a genuine Logrite cant hook.
We'll "give it a go" tomorrow.
i hope nobody spent the day looking for the guy in a turkey hat.i had to stay home and work.i really wanted to drop the tools and head down to boonville but,i couldn,t.
i hope you folks that did go had a great time.

We had a great day. We found the log rite booth and he said a couple other members had been by but we didn't see anyone else. Stocked up on saw chains and bar oil while we were there.We watched a little bit of the lumber jill contest, those girls can really run a buck saw!
While we were leaving Terry and I were discussing what to do about supper as it is a two hour ride home, when we passed a sign for a church supper just outside of the show. With us being HUGE fans of church dinners in we pulled and had a wonderful ham dinner with a piece of to die for pie. Stuffed, and after harassing the help a little we headed for home. :)
I was there and found the logrite booth. My son and I both had some brownies. I didn't find a single FF member I think you all were pulling my leg about being there. You just wanted me to walk around in circles looking at hats all day! Next year I think we FF members should plan on meeting at the logrite booth at a certain time instead of looking at hats all day. All in all I left home 5:00 am arrived at Boonvilleat 9:45 stayed until after 5 and drove home. I had a good time and some good food listened to a seminar on dont move firewood because of the EAB and ALB. Had some more good food(salt potatoes mmmm)Watched some of the parade until it rained on the parade. Made a dash for the Baker tent didn't see any hats there or at the woodmizer tent. So we walked around a little more and took in the sights picked up some needed things said good buy to the only FF member I think was really there at the logrite booth and headed home.
I was there and have a pic of the new arch to prove it!
We didn't get a Brownie as Tammy wasn't at the booth when we went back for it. Kevin said he wasn't allowed to give them out :D
I think he was just saving them for the trip home ;)
Met ARJ while talking with Tom in Mo. , we met another member from rhode island although I can't remember his name :-[
On our way to the show we stopped for breakfast and saw the whole Baker sawmill clan along with a celebrity sawyer that was in Sawmill & Woodlot a few months back. He was in the maple syrup shack article.
That Baker Blue Streak is some machine. If I were looking to saw full time it would be at the front of my needs list!
