Ohio Rod Builders Gathering

Just like the nerbs. we have a bit of room in our session tomorrow also.

Mike Barkely, Mark Crouse, Roy Miller will all be doing demonstrations on: Holo labels, Epoxy Finisning, Feather inlays, and Static testing. We will have two builders showing us there home made weaving thingamajiggys ( that is a very technical term. I used that name because fellow builder Joe Azar may not know what I meant)
The food will be great, the conversation good, lots of door prizes. The best part will be when I`m done stammering around.

I really expect this to be a good time.

If you can come send an e-mail to bill.eshelman@yahoo.com

Bill, Roy is actually doing CCS testing. He recently did a fly rod for me to match a broken bottom half, works great.

I will bring the weaving jigs that I made as well as the schematic (plans). These work really well and hold 100 threads.

Remember, you are the designated bouncer, and there is a lot of responsibiliity there. When they start throwing tomatoes and eggs at me I expect you will grab the by the seat of their pants and throw them out.

Some body please bring a sign, "No tomatoes or eggs".

We have two cameras if we can only remember to use them.

By the looks of it I may be busy just trying to control Joe Azar. That is if he isn`t coming up to your gathering. He`ll go anywhere for food.

Actually Billy, I`m afraid he may be out after tomatoes and eggs.

I think our local newspaper is going to do an article on us.
