ok everybody.....since we are starting to get pretty big and busy around here i want to get you all to interact ...so i was hoping ALL OF YOU CAN POST WHERE YOU LIVE... and we can find a cool way for those of us who live near each other to hook up at a central shop ...maybe have a round robin type thing go on all over the place...to those who live near me i propose our first meeting to be held here at the shop on saturday january 10th..so if your interested start a topic and a sign up sheet...and for those of you who dont live around me...we need a captian to start things up...paul,chuck,neil,swedishiron,justin ,cobb,and matbe the new from ATL! hawk... can get the ball rolling..this could be a great way to hang out ,meet new friends,pass along some good info...and add to my diabolical scheme to take over the wood working world. :shock:

.....mr.powers!... :lol:

...i thnk this will be allot of fun...we can make t shirts and cool crap like that...get mascots from each chapter...dogs cats birds whatever...i want to see a 207 all over the country....what do you think .... :mrgreen:

Sounds like an excellent idea.. count me in for the Colorado Chapter.

Longmont, CO is my location..

Grand Island, NE but have no shop. I may need to join a chapter in another state. Don't see much woodworking in nebraska that I know of.

Actually, I'm three hours from Atlanta (and I know I'm the ATL Hawk T was talking about

), so I'm probably a bad choice to head stuff up there. But, if anyone is in Southwest GA, I'm definitely down with it. If not (and since there seems to be a lot of ATL folks here), I can probably make a road trip from time to time :mrgreen:

Great idea T! Maybe have Trey upload the 207 graphics so we can get shirts made for each local area.

I'm located in Fayetteville, TN just 25 miles north of Huntsville, Al.

I'd love to meet anyone interested in woodworking.

Wow, I visit Vineland once a year. I have a friend that is the preacher at the Cumberland County Christian Church. I usually will preach there when I'm there so he is free for the week for golf.

Great Idea................ :mrgreen:

Here in the Navy things like that are common especially coins....Got some good connections...... We can start donating to the chapter and creat a treasurer whom will be elected by the chapter, this will provide means to support the website, more video's

..... and the inital purchase of the items for sale to the public.....Yes, paid members will get a discount.....

We use the asian market in Bahrain, Indonesia, phillipines, and Hong Kong to make the items at a huge discount than what you would pay here in the states.

Any way,, I am here in Corpus Christi Texas.....

Xenia, OH, I ride up there from Loveland via the bike trail several times a summer. Great ride and nice town.

Well, If you want next time your in town you can stop buy, I live about a mile from the school. Just shoot me a PM and will figure all the details out.

Vineland NJ? Is the largest employer there still a chicken farmer? LOL.. JK,, I grew up in Atlantic County, NJ. Living in Florida now. :lol:

SeniorChief · **Posted:** Thu Jan 08, 09 8:05 am

Hey T-Chisel, ever thought about creating an association with annual member dues???? This is a great way to fund the website, purchase the shirts and inital design fees. Develop some coins ( we call them challenge coins in the military ).. Each state can elect a residing board member to maintain the local 207 chapters... You on your end can create the founding father and develop the positions of Pres, VP, Sec, Treasurer, and Master at Arms. After the state board members are desided then they will elect the selectees to those positions. Its just a thought to ponder around...............

Either way....I am here in Corpus Christi Texas

LOL, Not anymore, but my dad says my great grandpop made a lot of money in the eggs back in the day. Then the next thing you know it just dried up over night.

My Aunt Lives there and we have friends of the family that live in Stuart that we are going to see next week for a wedding. Small world

FLWoodRat · **Posted:** Thu Jan 08, 09 5:16 pm

Justin,
Have a great trip down and enjoy the wedding. Next weekend eh? Dammit, wifey just told me that on Friday the 16th, we are driving to Homestead for a long day trip. We should be back on Saturday. If you feel like coming by the shop while you are here just sent me a private message and I will give you my phone number.

No power in my little cramped shop so anyother shop would be better. Unless your into squwinting to see your lines.
