Thanks verry much ! for your likes Smilingdog ! appriciated, glad you are on there to! it turned out to bee a real nice mix and blend of sounds & styles , steve did a good job !
"Pick" and "Uncle Lou" have suggested that I get ideas form you about getting a group started and please ignore the photo I accidently posted when trying to get rid of the red star beside my name on "my page." Thanks, Preston
It was nice meeting everyone last weekend! Hope to see you all at the next meeting. I am starting to gather parts for my second build this one will be fretted.
I don't know how any structure will work the first meeting, there will probably be a lot of get to know each other going on. You also have mention selling and trading and some seem excited about that, where would that time come from. Don't really know what you're considering crafting, maybe exchange of building techniques or materials or what ever. However you do it be flexible because some things will get people more excited for one reason or another and eat up more time than planned. I would just try to work something for the first and then figure out how to proceed in the future, but wouldn't really put anything in stone yet. Also some will want to spend more time on something different than others and will get bored quick doing something else. Gonna' be difficult to please all but I think we can satisfy most. Just a thought maybe themed meetings sometime focus strictly on a single topic, should give advanced notice of this no doubt.
