Im interested, what might be the costs for the event?

thanks,

Bill

[billp]

Bill, there are NO costs involved to attend any of the Camp Shopbots. Here's a thread which will give you a basic idea of what a Camp is all about- http://www.talkshopbot.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15563

[billp]

With a little over a month to go we'd ask that you would send either of us a note if you plan to attend this Camp. You can contact Angus through his link posted above, OR if you have questions, or suggestions for topics to cover at the Camp you can reach me at- campshopbot "at"gmail "dot"com Thanks!

[angus_hines]

Only 30 short days to go So sign up now !!

[billp]

Dick,
You and the Missus are signed up for the Southern Maine Camp,NOT the Mid Atlantic Camp ( sometimes known as the Tidewater Camp to even further confuse people....)!

[angus_hines]

Done. I will bring samples and have a talk on it. :D

[angus_hines]

Perfect Joe !!!

So for those of you coming andthose of you still on the fence !!! Hint Hint !!!

Thee is a RUMOR circling around that Shopbot will be unveiling their latest TOP SECRERT project right here at this camp !!! :eek:

[khaos]

Has anyone named a start time? :eek:

[billp]

Joe,
Pretty much the same at most Camps;
8-9 Coffee/etc.
9-Noon AM sessions
Noon-1 Lunch
1-4 PM sessions
4-? Brain picking

[billp]

I am getting messages in which people are asking me "what should I bring to a Camp". You don't need much; a notepad, possibly a camera, and if you're a business, bring cards.....

Bill I thought it was customary to bring a sample of things we make. had planned on doing so..

I love seeing what folks make. I believe Bill was refering to what you have to bring to attend. Which, is really just you and an open mind.

Gene, I think extra credit is always awarded. :D

[billp]

Joe is correct; we always like to see what people are doing with their machines, and if time allows we let them explain how they did it.

[billp]

We had a great turnout, some very good Show and Tell, and some interesting speakers. We got to see a few new things coming down the 'Pike from Durham, and the food was exceptional!!!! We even had NINE staff members from Shopbot in attendance...!
Many thanks to Angus and Jacqui for hosting the Camp , and to everyone who took the time, and made the effort to be at this one!

[beacon14]

I hope you served Peanuts.

[oddcoach]

[angus_hines]

[myxpykalix]

I didn't see any show n tell there? Is it just me or is Bill P looking younger and younger everytime i see him? I wonder if he has a painting in his attic?:confused:

[genek]

Tina and I just got back to Kentucky from the Mid Atlantic meet. We had a great time learned quite a bit, got to meet a lot of good people, was able to put faces with some of the people we talk to on the shop bot forum. We will be attending other camps... we got to see new products that shop bot is coming out with... looks very promissing

We would Like to thank Angus and his wife for hosting the show and for providing a wonderful meal.
thanks to everyone that helped put on this show.

Ok, now that I have a registered account to go with my shiny new shopbot machine I can finally say…
Thank you Bill, Angus, Jacqui, and thank you Shopbot for inviting me to camp shopbot at Angus’s shop the other weekend. It was great! I had a great time and it was full of the nicest people.

Thanks again.
