liz said she would like to show vids of it set against the backdrop of the shed so as to create a strong atomshere. we are hoping to use the demonstation to raise awareness for the stump pulling engine that the shed is going to restore.

I'll look forward to those vids. Your mods and accessories for your Tes are about the most original ones I've seen in a long time.

Hi Glenn and Liz, look forward to seeing you there.  Will the tables near the door still be free? Clinton and I were going to set up a display and runners there.

no problems. the origanal table is 8ft by 2 ft 6" it has been moved closer to the boiler and we can use another 4ft table there as well giving us about 12 ft of table . i need about 4 ft we are still waiting for graham to come home and then we really will be able to put on a show.
