newy wood expo
hey guys.

who's going to the newcastle wood expo? what day are you all going?

seeing as though this is my first wood show, i'm a bit exited and got a few questions.
- are there many show specials on machinery and finishes ( i'll just go to the ubeaut stand:) )
- do any people demonstrate things?
- does any one sell wood ( i hope so )
- how much does it cost to get in?
thanx in advance

cheers:)

From memory the Canberra show was about $25 to get in, but kids are cheaper.

Yes, there is all you describe and more available.

I missed the Sydney show cause I was away, so thinking about the Newcastle one. I'll buy u lunch if we meet - no grog cause your old man may be bigger than me.

Yes but not as good as Sydney

do any people demonstrate things?
Yes depending on whose there it varies each year

does any one sell wood ( i hope so )
This is the one thing usually better than sydney , espically slabs

how much does it cost to get in?
$10 I think with kids and old people cheaper, but if you listen to 2HD radio the weeks before they give away lots of free passes in their competitions

cheers:)
