I will be a vendor again this year. I haven't missed a year since the first "Texas-Turn-Or-Two" days. Remember the tents and the rain Clay??

We'll be going too. Haven't went as long as Lyle, but it's 12 years now I think. It doesn't get much better than SWAT. Those folks in Texas know how to throw a symposium ! Brent at Robust Tools

Well, replacing the heating and air conditioning systems and a new roof have decimated our finances, so, I will be sitting this one out. But I will be there in spirit just not in body ... have fun everyone!

Bowlman -- Insulation upgrades too?

Don't mean to be nosy, but as someone recently involved in the energy and energy conservation industry, I'm always looking for ways to help people spend less $$$. I've seen way too many badly-insulated buildings, and too many clueless HVAC installers just "upgrading" the heating and cooling systems with more powerful models. I understand they are selling and installing a product line, but if only more of them took a wider view... Since my business was more in the line of consulting and advising, I was not always the favorite of the HVAC folks when I recommended building upgrades instead of equipment upgrades (neither of which were provided by me).

Safe spinning,

I can remember when it was more like a camping trip, sort of a wood turning Burning Man event.

I was their very first paid demonstrator-in the barnyard, so they are having me back for the 25th anniversary. Probably had 8 or 10 people watching that first one.

I liked the Maricopa Ranch venue the best.

This would have been my 7th year but coming up with double vision precluded me from coming this year. 95% better but not taking any chances , will be missing the symposium.
