Did anyone log on to Meet The Woodturner last night? Great discussion about aspects of demonstrations that we may not know about such as travel, prep, logistics etc. Panel headed by Pat Carroll, with Jimmy Clewes, Cindy Drozda, Mary Clewes, John Lane and Helen Bailey. It was an interesting and thoughtful MTW session. I think there will be a recording made available as soon as Pat Carroll gets back home.

It only takes doing one demo for your club to learn the huge investment it requires to do a good demo. I prefer experience over videos.
I’m a regular attendee at “Meet The Woodturner” and you are correct it was a very good interview/dissection on live demonstrations and all of the “prep” it takes not mention the travel. Well worth going to their web page in the archive section and check it out. It’s refreshing to listen to an honest discussion and the parties sticking to their convictions. Thank you to all who participated.

Sorry I had to miss it. Driving back from a family reunion.
Thanks for the suggestion! Just went to the website but it returns a “blank” page. Found the link on Pat Carroll’s site to sign-up for the newsletter. The archive section is available for 15 euro per month. Looking forward to checking it out.
Yikes, I'm going to his next subject (or victim) this Sunday. I'm honored to be chosen and nervously looking forward to it.
