Just returned from the show. The knowledge I gained was even more than the money I spent, which was considerable. I got to put a face and shake a hand with so many of the builders who have been so helpful to me on this forum. I got to meet and thank Tom for all his dedication to the craft. And he signed my well worn book of his. BUT what impressed me the most was the complete lack of ego and the honest, humble interest in helping fellow builders that was displayed by so many of the "experienced/ A+ builders " there. Joe at trondike, Mike B, Ken P (quite a sense of humor too), Mike J, Tom K, Andy D, Jim U, Rich F, Bob M and Putter. What a fraternity of quality, skilled human beings. There are several people who I surely have forgotten names already, but what a friendly educational experience. For those of you who couldn't make it, I highly recommend you attend next year. Thanks Tom and all you pros and dealers who made it such a class experience.
