Sure seems like I find myself in Cincinnati at least once or twice a year…
The fine folks of Popular Woodworking are graciously hosting a Lie-Nielson Hand Tool Event this coming Friday and Saturday. Personally, I am hoping to see some sunshine… what a wet spring in PDX. (Horrible model helicopter weather, which has saved me some repair money for sure…)
The hours are 4-9 on Friday with some kind of after show event where attendees get to hurl insults and food at the tool makers. (I am going to try and hit Chris Schwarz in the forehead with a ripe avocado for suggesting that I needed a blog). Should be fun. Saturday is noon to five (FYI, I will be gone around 3PM on Saturday–I have a ride to Knoxville that I can’t pass up).
I will be demonstrating the new Jointmaker Pro v2 (upgrade kit), and it is fantastic if I do say so myself. Oh, I will also have a prototype CT-17 Dual Angle Block Plane to show too.
Will there be discounts available for those that show up and buy stuff? I am afraid so.
I would love to chat with you if you can find the time!
Best-
John
I was going to try to be there this weekend (it’s just a three-hour drive for me), but stuff just keeps coming up, so I’m going to have to pass. I’ll be there in October for the WIA conference.

Discounts if I buy stuff? It’s probably worth the plane fare!
Hope you have a great time, and sell butt-loads of stuff. And that it’s sunny. Apparently you’re supposed to eat skyline chili in Cincinnati. But your body is presumably a Tool Potentate temple that you wouldn’t sully with junk food.
Right?

So how was the trip? Sell anything? Eat Skyline chili?
