Had a few demo's on the lathe and a very informative session on photoshop etc
Little Sammy had a go on the lathe. Looks like she wants to join the forum too.
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...94ad790af8.jpg
She started off with glasses but as they dod not sit back far enough on her nose we went for a face shield

The girls enjoyed some time timw to them selves and out came the spinning wheels

It was a parking lot in the backyard

The daylight part of day one started with me waking to two swags under the tent

Now waht you really want to know is what the earlier part of day one started with. There was a big surprise for me thanks to PittWater Pete

The big reveal
Well at about 12:30am Saturday morning the pittwater crew rolled into town (from the north, different set of directions). After chewing the fat it was time to help them settle down for part of a mornigs sleep.
PittWater Pete had a nice tool chest and tools to match for show and tell.
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...47a878716a.jpg
Then there was the swags to carry out in the dark and another big box. Some kind of eski or something. Well pull of the banket and look
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...76859d8f9e.jpg

Here we have his and his tool box's

Lovely work Team Pittwater!
I saw the top of the box in Pete's ute when he was at my place and it looked very nice.
Any updates folks or are you having too much fun?
Wish I was there,
Craig
Dave's been busy in the kitchen whipping cream for desert. :)

They werent the only ones to be hard at something.
Whether is was working on a lathe like Doug
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...0f70529b0b.jpg
Or using a lathe as a saw horse like Craig
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...d56bb3126c.jpg
For other a good chance to eat
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...6fc3c0e607.jpg
Or cook
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...4f231f97b6.jpg
Or just chew the fat
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...80d5476b5c.jpg
Some did it hard (like cutting a railway sleeper with a hand saw)
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...c69000eac0.jpg
And some took it easy
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...edef72a53d.jpg

Thanks everyone for a great weekend. I will have to make sure I can stay the whole time next time.
I recently discovered that Crowie and I had grown up in the same neighborhood in Brisbane in the 1960's, within a hundred metres of each other. We thought we might have had to go home without seeing him but fortunately he arrived at the GTG just before we had to leave so we postponed our departure half an hour so we could have a bit of a catch-up after 50 years! He would have been about twice my age back then, now he just looks it. :oo: :D (just jokes Crowie, it was great to see you and swap memories if only briefly).
Thanks to everyone who was there for making us feel welcome. We hope we made you feel the same way.
Looking forward to the next GTG.
Cheers
Doug
