Mercer,WI Camp Shopbot !

[billp]

To avoid any further potential confusion with the "Upper Mid West Camp"we're going to call this event the Mercer, WI Camp. It will be held on Saturday, Sept. 29th at the shop of David McNutt - Info regarding the Camp and signups will follow in the next few days/weeks. Here is Davids web page-

Sign me up Doc!

I look forward to another camp and seeing David's shop.

Eric,
Will do. David's new shop is huge, and he's got a LOT going on with the business.

This is great. I/we will be there even though it is the last day of the trout fishing season.

Bob,
The Camps usually run from 9-4 so you might still be able to sneak in some fishing...See you there...

I look forward in hoisting my first camp, and meeting everyone. We built a new shop the fall of 2010 which has 3400 sq/ft of shop space and about 1000 ft of office and display area. The shop part of my business is called Turtle River Millwork and we build mainly custom millwork which consists of entry doors, interior doors and screen doors. Also cabinets and rustic paneling and trim packages. We use our ShopBot for cutting parts and carving 3D models into some of our projects. Depending on what everyone wishes to do I would hoist a cookout ether Friday night before or Saturday. There is allot of other things to do in the mercer area and great places to stay so I would suggest to come and spend a weekend and enjoy our great area. Look forward in meeting everyone!

I wonder are you located right in the town of Mercer off US HWY 51? I was unable to locate your Parkway Drive address on yahoo maps. Looks like about a 10 hour drive from my home in Winnipeg, Manitoba so is certainly doable for a weekend trip. Are there camping areas closeby suitable for a small campers? Should still be comfortable camping wx in late Sept.

September is around the corner for me. I vote for a Friday afternoon tour of Bob's shop and a Friday night barbecue. Let me know if you need anything from down south here in Gleason. I would like to see the 3D carving, tooling, and production proceedures/equipment for making glue-ups if possible.

Hey Guys,

I'm new to the Shopbot community and am interested in networking with fellow shopbotters...What exactly are these camp shopbot things and what part of Wisconsin is Mercer in?

Nate,

As far as Mercer's location there are a number of web based mapping programs that should be able to find it for you.
