We'd like more info on the desktop, positives & negatives, etc.

[billp]

Sue,
We'll go over all of the above...

[billp]

We're about a month away from the Camp, so please drop us a note to confirm that you plan to attend this one- campshopbot@gmail.com
Any other specific areas you'd like covered this year?

[billp]

Just got a note asking for a session similar to what the folks in Maine have requested; a 'business/marketing' side of things so we'll include that into the schedule as well. If there are any other specific requests please drop me a note as this is YOUR Camp so we'd like to cover as much pertinent ground as time allows... Thanks !

[billp]

Getting close; if you haven't contacted us yet about your plans to attend, please do so ASAP.
And don't forget to bring something along with you for the "Show and Tell" session...

We were SO caught up in today's Camp that none of us even noticed an earthquake that hit a few miles from Gabe's shop...!

Many thanks to ShopBot, Bill and Gage for another great camp! We had a great time and learned lots. By the way, we ordered a Desktop today to join our Buddy in the workshop! Exciting stuff!

What a great experience for a cnc noobie. Bill's middle name should be "Wiki-pedia" Learned a lot, got a lot of resource info, and just plain had a good time.
Thank You! Bill, and ShopBot....
