All I can say is WOW. It was sure worth the trip. I wish I had a chance to get to meet more of the guys. Name tags would have been helpful even though most of you guys know each other already.
I learned so much, now I just have to remember it all and sort it out!!
I saw plugs in my sleep last night

Great event! Thanks to Slip and John and everyone involved. Chum and I had a real good time.
It was great to see some old friends again and to talk to a few more builders that I have been wanting to meet. The work you guys do is absolutely amazing.
When I see the names in this thread, it seems I missed meeting some more people I would have liked to talk to. Hopefully that will happen next time.
Hope to be up your way again soon. Thanks for making me feel welcome.

I don't build plugs but I truly appreciate the skill level, talent, and time that some of you guys put into this unique art form. I am glad I stopped in and checked out all the activity which can only described as a cult-like.
I did learn a couple things and can't wait to give it try someday. To watch that fellow do an asymmetric turning and create a tapered fish like body in both directions was cool. I thought for sure that was going to fly off the chuck and take someone out. But the finished produced was very slick. Sorry I didn't get to talk to everyone. Nametags with screen names would be a good idea.
