How many solitary students spend half their lives in making discoveries which had been perfected a century before their time, for want of a condensed exhibition of what is known."Buffonview some of my work RelicForge on facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Mulkey Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Outstanding line-up of talents. I wish that I could be a part of it. Unfortunately that is the only time of year that I have to get together with the family re-union. My loss. Gary Gary ABS,CKCA,ABKA,KGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldo Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I'll be going down again this year. If anyone going needs a delivery I will pack it up and take it down with me. I just ask that you call the office at 973-949-4140. Thanks, Aldo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Coe Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I'll see you there Aldo, and all the rest of you. I'll get there Wednesday, with John Emmerling from Oregon and Rome Hutchings from Minnesota. John was there with me last year and is the Ribbon Burner guy. I'll have my Ribbon Burner forge there.
