I wanted to go to the last one you held so bad, but had to work. Hope it's not true for me this time as I'd like to come out there and learn as much as I can, and meet some great people. Keep us posted, and thanks.:thumbup:

Hrmmm...that's the weekend just before my birthday...I wonder if I can call this a birthday present to me? If I trip over a pile of money before, I wonder if I could buy a press out from underneath Bowie?

Unless something unforeseen comes up, I intend to be there and give a little help to those who desire to make their own sheaths. Sandy
