    Anyone going to the Vegas woodworking show?

    I am heading down to the show again this year (was there in 2011, where I decided to buy my Shopot) and if anyone else is going, and might want to cruise the show or grab a coffee, let me know.

    Andrew,
    I am going to the show. My plan was to make my final decision on CNC at the show and guess what! Following the forum I found a 2009 PRS Alpha with 50 hours on it. So drove 600 miles with my trailer and adopted my Bot. On the way home had 300 miles of rain and 300 miles of dry, but all was well.
    As a new user cut out a couple of 2D projects and can't wait to do more. I would love to have coffee or lunch with you if you have time. My plan for the show is to look at bits, software and vacuum hold down options. I have followed your posts and am very impressed with the beautiful projects you produce. So.... if you don't mind basic questions... I'll even buy

    Default The bot.

    A shop bot opens up a whole new world of designs and products.
    My company is three generations old. With the shop bot. I now produce more with one part time employee and my self than what my dad and grandfather did with 10 men in less time. The shop bot allows you to do things that normally one could not do like 3/d carvings...
    Check out www.beckwithdecor.com, www.vectorart3d.com www.onsrud.com
    Ialso have patterns for sale.. Go to my link about 45 patterns.
    Shop bot has great training, check with T.J. at Shopbot for his schedule.

    Ken,
    I plan to be there all day Friday, and hopefully Saturday as well (depends upon my wife's plans).

    Sounds great... I love talking about woodworking and looking for new things to spend my $$ on

    Will revive this thread a few weeks before the show..
