Gun builders get together
« on: March 25, 2022, 04:59:25 PM »
 Having a Gun Builders Get Together at the Log Cabin Shop on April 9th. Starts around 10 in the morning and goes to whenever. Bring a gun or project to work on, meet other builders, solve a problem, meet the Log Cabin staff, browse thru the store and generally have a good time!

I’m going to try to make it.  I am curious what’s available for bench vise and lighting.  Do I need to reserve a spot or anything?

How many people usually show up for these types of events.  I’ve not been to one of them before.

Thanks

Dave

No need to reserve a spot. There are 6 benches that can hold 2 people each. We've made some light fixtures with LED lights, they are very bright and helpful. We usually have 6, maybe 8 folks show up

I was able to make it to the get together today.  Thanks for putting this on and thanks to the Log Cabin for a fantastic place to have it.

Good group of guys.  I was able to bounce some ideas around and ask some questions of guys that were there.  Enjoyed meeting you all.

See you at the next one hopefully

Thanks for coming Dave, I enjoyed talking with you. Hopefully we  can have another get together, maybe one a month? We had a pretty good crowd.

Thanks for pulling this together yesterday, it was a good day.  I took a few pictures.  I counted 15 guys total attended, very nice turn out.

I had a great time Bill, thanks for taking pics. Nice to see Steve Wright at the Cabin, came in from Freemont. Unfortunately, we're all showing our age, but who cares. Thanks to all who showed up!

Looks like a fine get together.For me it's a 500 mile round trip and my wife no longer drives so such trips are not doable now.
