    Default Let’s Make It Expo. -Melbourne



    Some of you maybe interested in this event this weekend.

    I have been invited to exhibit and will have a display there. My first time attending so it will just be a static display & i’ll determine if a live demonstration is feasible for next year.

    Only had a couple of weeks notice so been madly working on some bigger items to show. Hands are pretty sore, body’s tired but pleased with the outcome & off to set up today.

    Please come & say g’day if you come.

    Just got back from setting up. So far myself & Eccentric engineering were the only ones set up.
    There is an experimental motor bike and a German tank coming some steam & stationary engines so hopefully I’ll have someone watch my stand long enough to get around with the phone camera.

    That's the biggest problem doing shows like that on your own, trying to get someone to look after it so you can have a quick squiz, grab a bite or toilet break. BTDT
    Hope you do well there. Make sure you have plenty of change, people like to come up with a $50 note for a $5.00 item.

    I went to one of the expos a few years back, I think at Monash, it was great. Unfortunately I won’t be going as Dad is in hospital with a not good prognosis.

    Nice to meet you too, and the other forumites both regular posters & lurkers!

    One had an aspiring young Blacksmith with him so hopefully I have encouraged him to continue on his journey. He took home what will hopefully become a hammer.

    Hi Dale,

    Thanks for the pictures ! There are some wonderful works of art on show. I particularly like the V12 motor cycle and the ball clock. I hope you had a good time there.
    Best Regards:
    Baron J.

    Baron The Ball clock was pretty cool! The plan is to have the V12 bike finished mid next year for a ride across the USA. The same guy built the battle ship and the tank.
