Stealing from demonstrators - Dog act.
Our own electron murderer Stu does the right thing sharing his knowledge for us all, and behind his back a weak prick takes advantage and steals 3 quality router bits (surfacing bit, cove bit and V-groove bit) he was using for the Torque Centre demo.:(( Must say though, im not pointing the bone at any forum member, but the woodworking community is small and tight knit. We share our tools, knowledge and friendship, and when something like this happens it leaves a very sour taste.
I just hope the perpetrators conscience gets the better of him, and leaves them outside the door of the Woodworking Warehouse some night, no questions asked. :)
On a happy note, it was a magnificent weekend. Everything was spot on… the food, weather, demos, the lot. Big thanks to Wanita, Grahame and Anthony:2tsup:
It's a real shame, but a rethink is necessary..
G'day
I was too P'dd off yesterday to raise this issue, however a nights sleep hasn't helped.
All of the suppliers at the open days took a relaxed approach, talking, demonstrating and entertaining people who we considered to be our guests, in away we treated the Braeside premises as our own lounge room, figuring that if you have guests you don't have to bolt the furniture down!!
The participants at the event will have our usual 'post mortem' which usually involves working out how we can make things better for our guests, next time, however, regrettably, we will have to add security to the agenda, How sad will it be if demonstrators like; Stuart, Terry, Morrie & Ern have to stop and lock tools away mid demo???
That said, we (PWS) will make sure that Stu isn't in anyway out of pocket by this mongrel act. Even though we to appear to have lost a couple of Whiteside Inlay Kits.
We really hope that the 'honest' guests that made up 99.9999% of the visitors enjoyed themselves as we did, meeting, greeting and of course selling.
Regards
Grahame
