While unpacking from the weekend, I got to thinking about the number of products and companies that I end up demonstrating, promoting or otherwise giving exposure through product placement. Here is the list just from the previous weekend: Torque Workcentre (Professional Woodworker Supplies (PWS)) Beall Pen Wizard (Carroll’s Woodcraft) Tormek T7 (Carroll’s / Promac) Tormek [...]

Days? Seriously? Didn’t mean to leave it so long, but still I get home at night and flake completely- no capacity to be awake long enough to write. But the weekend approaches, and it contains the wood show. Being so ballistic at work means I just can’t afford the time to be more involved with [...]

And as quickly as it was arriving, the show is over for Melbourne for another year. I really did mean to post updates each day, but what with the long days, and longer drives to and from the show I fell asleep each evening well before I had a chance to write anything, so this [...]

There are 4 workcentres on the stand this time – a Router Master (with probably the drill attachment mounted), 2.5m machine with a selection of tools, 3m machine with the prototype of the chainsaw attachment (and my little chainsaw – [...]

I’m starting to build my shopping list for the upcoming Melbourne Wood Show, and in my preparatory travels, I typically check out Carroll’s and found some interesting new products they have that will be of interest to others going to the show. For one, they are stocking the Tormek T7 (where I got mine from), [...]

Caught up with Larry when he came down from Brisbane for both the Alternate Wood Show and the Melbourne Wood Show. We got to see some of his work at the Melbourne Show – he does some stunning work which I took some photos of, and you can catch more of through his website. He [...]

Another show comes to a close – not sure if I’ve known one to fly by so quickly. I’d be more disappointed about that except that it is only a little under 4 weeks to the next one in Brisbane, and 4 months to the next one in Melbourne! It will be interesting to see [...]

Another fun-filled day at the Melbourne Wood Show. There were plenty of demos to look at, from Stan’s enthusiastic appearances, through Tormek sharpening, Gifkins dovetailing, Lazy Larry’s creations, Torque Workbenches, Bowl Turning, Fine Finishing, Power Carving, Didgeridoo Manufacturing etc. If nothing else, each stand has experts in the products on display, so lots and lots [...]

Good catching up with everyone who came along and said hi, and welcome to anyone who has now discovered Stu’s Shed because of the [...]

Haven’t gotten too many things specifically on the shopping list for the show (yet). Dangerous going to the show with an open mind, and an open wallet (but it leads to a lot of fun too!) One year I had done a large shed clearout to eBay (way before Stu’s Shed), and so had an [...]
