Just spokened to Mr. Stilldrillin and it's a maybe, verging on a distinct possibility, that said venerable geezer and myself will be there on Sat.

Although if we are captured by them aliens in a flying saucer for breeding purposes again, we won't .... ..  :thumbup:

As I posted on another thread, I'm there all of the three days on the single ARC stand running demo's on the new end mill sharpener. Not sure where the stand will be but guess it's roughly where ARC used to stand by the doors in the long hall.

So, we're quite a gathering.... :beer:

Where shall we meet? My vote is at the ARC stand? Around 12....

We can continue taking the mickey out of each other discussing our latest workshop efforts while we watch John grind some stuff...

I could maybe bring along my box of about 60 end mills for you to test that cutter on if you like :thumbup:

Everyone is welcome to bring some but going to have to put a 5-6 ? limit on them so everyone gets a chance.
Will be able to do 3mm to 12mm in 2,3 or 4 flute in HSS or Carbide.

If you have any with chipped ends then just flat them off on a grinder before you come to save having to repeated grind them back. It doesn't need any end cutting edges left, it can start from a solid if needed. 4 flutes can be the type with a pip in or if they are ground back to get rid of the pip then it will grind them centre cutting.

You lads won't be the only ones as there is an article in MEW on the grinder where it's stated that we will be doing cutters at the show.

Article here for those that don't take MEW.

Six of us going from Crewe "Men in Sheds" on the Friday. The meeting place for the last few years has been by the big window at the back of the main entrance hall (plenty of room there) at 12 noon, but if anyone else going on Friday wants to use an alternative, that will be fine by us.
I will have to sort through my end mills for John to play with. :palm:

Cheers Dek.  :med:

Can't imagine anyone would want to be trapped in a car with me for more than an hour!

I wouldn't have the money to really make use of Harrogate though.

Shame as just down the road for me but I will be away when this is on so will have to be next year for me, which will also give me the chance to save up some pennies for then. :)
