Bring everything you have room for , my space to haul is limited .

Yes, it would be helpful if you had extra vices to bring.  I have a setup (an idea that I hope works out) that I'm bringing with two vices on it.  I will also bring my tillering tree/scale and some tools.  Be certain to label your rasps, scrapers, etc with your names as they can get mixed amongst each other.  Likely, they will. 

I'm hoping also to add a novelty shoot to the event.  I spoke with Mike Damon, and he likes the idea.  If you can save and bring empty gallon milk jugs, all you can bring will be needed for the novelty event.

We don't really know ! no one keeps track and that is one of the things we are trying to figure out how to do !
 The event has struggled mostly because the wilder creek conservation club has struggled they are now on solid ground! we have not seen big numbers (1000+) for a few years but have increased  each year for the last four  years so I expect to see a couple of hundred folks come through this year ! these are just my guess no real figures are available .
The one thing I do know is We have fun !
We build bows !
We flint knapp !
We eat !
We enjoy life !
Did I say We have fun !
Sometimes we even stop to shoot our bows !!
Come on out and join in !!!

I have a pile of 4  x 6 x 6 that need to be used. Looks like I need to build me a vice stand! Matt my two teen boys go through about 50-60 gallons of milk a day. I should have a few for you by then.

Nah, I will just rent mine to you for a stave an hour! I gotta finger out how to build one first. I have a few ideas, you got any?

Drums:  What worked for me a while back was to make a flat bench (a top with two legs braced).  Then I attached a bench vise near one end for holding the stave.  I sat on the end opposite the vise and peeled away.

Basically a short table then? Say 12" wide by 48" long and about chair height off the ground.... Am I close?
