Are any of you planning on attending the 2007 Desert Woodturning Roundup (February 9 - 11, in Mesa, Arizona)? (http://www.desertwoodturningroundup.com/index.htm for information on the symposium.)

The reason I ask is because a turner from Florida is trying to set up a wood exchange and I thought others might want to participate. If there's enough interest, I thought we could try to arrange to meet somewhere Friday afternoon on the 9th. (Registration starts Friday at noon. The instant gallery and the vendors will be open that afternoon. The first demonstrations will be Saturday morning.) In addition to swapping wood, we could swap stories (true and less so), and perhaps break bread together.

Any interest?

Don't let my wife see this thread, or she will make me go and give mine away. It takes up half the garage, and I would have orders not to bring any back :( .

Last year, they had a swap n sell time & place designated at EVIT. This year, I have not heard any mention of that. I'll ask around & see.

I checked on this, and there is no official swap & sell this year. However, it is perfectly fine for folks to organize one on their own.
