Mr. Pogie, it would be our pleasure to have you. I have plenty of compressed air and a nice spray room for you do show off your art of airbrushing, should be fun. Looks like we have about a dozen guys intrested. Fishpart, come on up and bring Saltheart.

Maybe we can epoxy bassmaster to the workbench. We can all try different stuff and techniques and learn from each other. So what do ya say? :):D

I could volunteer to have it at my place if it's central enough, we can just put my customers cabinets outside out of the way for one day:) I'll even clean up the shop. Figure after the fishing season is over OK? Maybe Bob can come and teach us about pouring rubba even. :)

Hard to believe this was more than 15 years ago
That first one was the best and each one was unique

Funny looking back where it all began

Wish more of the guys that got their feet wet at these things would come back and share what they have learned. Seems over the years most of the guys who chose it as more than just a hobby have become so protective of their ideas and processes that they are not interested in sharing a little with people that are looking to get involved. Kind of disappointing to me but I may be in the minority of that view. It was fun yesterday with a small turn out plenty of room and great conversation but sad that I only saw maybe 3 people that are thinking of doing this for first time or looking for guidance and opinions. I know that most, I am guilty to a degree too, are looking on the cyber scene nowadays for their info and social life but it would sure be nice to see more get back to the old fashion technique of getting together. Maybe next year.

Paul sorry I couldn't make it. I kept my mind working throughout the day not to get bummed out not going. On the side of the river we have a hand full building and one newbee. He is just starting from scratch and doing well. I try to advise as much as posssible. Everyone on this sight has given me plenty info to lessen the learning curve and I'm always there to help the next guy and especially the beginners.

Great discussions yesterday. Interesting bits on those that "turned Pro" too. Given X-rays and bandsaws I don't know that there are many "secrets" out there, except for finishes maybe. We covered that topic as well yesterday. Even the spray can sample. Guess you had to be there.

Frank, the post was started 10/10/01 ...It appears this is how plugfest was born. Paul was referring to plugfest being held last week at MoBeach ..
