Yes, not sure how I missed that, it's been there in previous posts.

Thanks Tom, I'm looking forward to the show, seeing old friends and making new ones.

This year the focus of the VisualWRAP Enterprises booth will be learning the art of decorative wraps. I have a new product being launched which I am hopeful will lower the barriers to entry of this wonderful aspect of rod building called Thread Art. Come along the show, marvel at the awesome rods on display in the NERBs and Southern Rodbuilders booths, and drop in to ask the question "how do I get started with thread art?". You will need to put up with my Aussie accent, however having lived Stateside for the last couple of years hopefully I have learned enough of the local lingo to not bamboozle Y'all!

And this year I am dedicating my booth to the memory of my Dad who passed away last year. His spirit lives on in the imagination and skill he demonstrated in various creative art forms, and the way he brought along those around him on a journey of discovery, learning and appreciation. He helped others do things they could hardly imagine, with intelligence, humility and care.

During the show I will also be demonstrating the VisualWRAP and VisualWEAVE software packages, and in the background I am happy to do installations on your system if you bring your laptop along. Let me know if there are other show requests and I will see if I can incorporate them.

See you at the ICRBE!

Thread Art is not a crime!

No Mudhole this year?

No. From what I understand, supply chain issues have left them in the lurch. Many companies are experiencing the same thing.

On the other side of the coin, many new manufacturers and dealers are on board which should lead to the largest Expo in the event's history. Never before have exhibitors purchased this many booths.

Nice to see so many totally new companies are going to be there this year. Very impressive line up.
