I can be the one to open and close the booth. I won't be there at 7 AM but I can definitely be there the whole time that the show is open.

I'll bring my Rostock.

Bring anything that you can, let's shoot for variety! Things like R2D2, the flame tube, RotoMaak, the perpetual motion machine, the mirror satellite dish, etc. Anything interesting that we can talk about building would be great!

Things like extension cords and power strips would be a good idea too.


Tell everybody that you know, this should be a great event to generate interest for the group and get us some more traction in the community.

Jim is heading this one up, I will be there to help set up, possibly tear down.
But good question, I'll email Jim and try to find out. - Maybe just a video of the fire tube then.

[jimustanguitar]

We've got a 10x10 booth with two 6-foot tables.

Not a lot of space, but enough to set up a variety of things to get people interested.

Do you have video of the fire-tube? We can at least show off the things we've made even if they can't make it inside the building.

[jimustanguitar]

Or maybe bring it so that people ask what it is, and then show them the video. It doesn't have to function to talk about it and show it off.

[navkram]

i do have a 2 videos on my phone, if someone has a tablet that could loop the video I could bring it and have the tablet in front of it.
need to make a list of what we are going to have.

[Larry]

Sorry, can't help on Sat - morning and late afternoon are already booked. I might be able to stop by around lunchtime for a quick visit.

[jimustanguitar]

BTW, the event is free to the public. If you just want to walk around and see the show, please do!

I got a small Laptop (ASUS E-Machine) I can bring and play a loop on it.

[jimustanguitar]

OK guys, 1 day until show time!

It runs tomorrow from 10-4. Setup is before that. I'm going to get there between 8 and 9 to scope things out, please show up when you can.

If you're in the area and need lunch, there will be beer and food at the show, and it's free to the public. See you there!

Even with the weather thanks to the members that "manned up" and made it. I feel we had great exposure to many people about our group and technology we are wotking with. I think seeme should see a uptick of business since many people wanted to by a orion and ask where to get one an all were suprised they were from Goshen.
We as makers need to be loud and out in the public pushing our vision. I talked to many about our vision and everyome thought it was a great idea and was supportive and hoped we could get the space.
