2010 Austin Camp Shopbot

[waynelocke]

The Austin Camp Shopbot will be held this February 26 & 27, the last Friday and Saturday of the month.

The Friday Camp will begin at 10AM and the Saturday camp will begin at 9AM. As always the camp is free and includes coffee, drinks and lunch.

The Friday meeting will have a focus on the indexer with at least 3 indexer presentations on different indexer setups, the Aspire indexer options and presentations of work. If anyone planning to attend would also like to make a presentation on the indexer please let me know.

There will be presentations on 3d cutting and design, design software, maintenance and other topics of interest. As always "Show and Tell" is a major component of the camp, so bring some of your work.

I would beg anyone who uses the Shopbot in a unique, unusual or just cool way and would like to give a more detailed presentation than the "Show and Tell" I would really like to hear from you.

Also, let me know of any ideas or special topics you would like to see addressed.

The camp will be at my shop in Southwest Austin just off of Hwy 290 at:
9000 Feather Hill Rd.
Austin, TX 78737.

A reminder to everyone coming to all the Camps; bring something with you ! "Show and Tell" is the best part of any Camp !
Also PULEEEEEEEZE drop a note to one of us so we know you are planning to attend. Thanks!

We will have two extreme newbies attending your camp. If anyone is interested in helping us get up and running we would love the help! This is a great forum so I am sure that our guys are going to come home with good info and be all fired up to put our machine to use...

It's getting VERY close to Camp time, so if you haven't contacted one of us yet to let us know you're planning to attend, PLEASE do so ASAP. Thanks!

[billp]

[billp]

Never a doubt.....

I may be a little late ( IF I can even get there...) as I just got to the airport and found that my flight to Austin has been canceled due to today's blizzard, and they failed to send out notices to all of us... I am hoping to catch the first flight out of here tomorrow, and if that works I'll be there around Noon....
