Really it doesn't start until Thursday, on Wed “All” they have is, Super Wednesday at Craft Supplies, well, that and packet pickup with the Pen Makers Get-together.

Super Wednesday, well… The largest wood turning supply store in the US (maybe the world) has 10 demonstrations running, at a time, all day (well, except for lunch). Most of these demo’s are the maker/vendor showing off his product.

Craft Supplies has a “sale” on every item they stock, just for the people attending the conference or Super Weds.

Craft Supplies also has a large area set aside for selling scratch and dent/discontinued and “odd” items.

Lastly they donated several hundred dollars of items to be given out as door-prizes. Going by the numbers of the tickets, there were over 350 that attended Super Wed.

Oh, ya, they also feed you lunch

The packet pickup and Pen Makers get-together happen in the evening. After I got my packet I spent some time at the Pen Makers get-together and watched the setup for the Demo’s (10 tracks) along with the product demo area and instant gallery.
