Hey guys, some pretty cool news.  Peter, from The Tool Nut, will be at the party on Sunday.

He'll have a lot of free goodies.  Tool Nut t-shirts & hoodies, stickers, Rick Christopherson's Supplemental Manuals which we exclusively provide in all of our ship outs when applicable.  We're also very excited to announce Peter will have a bunch of the After Market Accessories on site which we've just begun carrying.

Lastly, Peter will be able to accept orders on site.

Regretfully I won't be able to make it.  Heading up to the Cape on Friday to sail for the weekend.  Hope you guys have a great time.

Thats great news Sean. I have been in talks with Craig Feuerzeig, maker of Bowclamps http://www.bowclamp.com/buy.html. He will not only be showing up, but will be doing a demo on how to use his Bowclamp and donating a Bowclamp to the raffle. The raffle is turning out to be worth the price of admission.

I would also like to announce the identity of said tool inventor....our very own QWAS aka Steve Adams. Maker of QWAS dogs, Rail dogs, and QWAS square. These dogs are gonna need 110v?

There will be no more announcements about the tool unveiling until the day of the party, thanks Eric

Wayne, with the addition of the new guy, I am bringing in Chloe's boyfriend, Leo for back up. You know how those Jersey guys act?, Eric

Which one is the boyfriend, the ugly one or the one with the big ears? [scratch chin]

Nice!  One of the best parts of living in the SF Bay area was the sailing.  Out on the bay Christmas morning... after work, weekends, all year long... 

Its too bad none of my buddies in Jersey sail, been trying to convince my parents to get a little J boat or Catalina.

Wayne, hes the one getting his butt kicked in this Tug O War contest, Eric

 

[ericbuggeln]

Vinny, this is where you are supposed to reply "Yes"? Eric

Guys, im a little worried that we are gonna film all these great demos on an iphone???

Is there anyone who can bring a video camera? Is an iphone acceptable? Nerds, any input? Eric

 

[craig feuerzeig]

Correction Eric... make that a master set of Bowclamps for the raffle.  Looking forward to meeting everybody.

And Vinny, if you ever need a  NJ sailing buddy, I'm your guy.  (there's a nice old J-24 in RI right now... motivated seller) 

This is me when I had cabinet money.

This is me now...  All the fun with none of the headache... well a lot of the fun anyway.  [wink]

 

[ericbuggeln]

Craig, that is massive. Im starting to wish I were eligible for this raffle.

Due to the increasing nature of the raffle, I am considering giving each guest one raffle ticket, but then selling $5 raffle tickets for increased chance of winning. Proceeds could go to a charity to be voted on at a later date. Maybe something like saving shop classes in high schools? Eric

Sundays forecast 80's partly cloudy

 

[ericbuggeln]

There will be a sign on the road side pointing you down the right driveway.

My house is set way back from the road

The driveway will split into three, we are the middle driveway, parking is on the grass. Not in the driveway, please.

My telephone number is 860 997 1984 if you get lost or you just want to chat about tools. Call me, Eric

 

[ericbuggeln]

Sundays Forecast 82 degrees partly cloudy 20% chance of rain. We will have two pop up tents, so some of the party can be outside the garage also, Eric

 

[ericbuggeln]

HELLO! Its been two days since i announced that QWAS is unveiling a new tool and no one wants to talk about it? This is gonna be HUGE. Wake up people. Granted, im pretty tight lipped, but you guys should be talking about this.....Eric

 

[Theshipstore]

I don't know Eric, I thought I was sworn to secrecy
Sal

 

[ericbuggeln]

Well Sal, its interesting bc Qwas's other tools are all made out metal. Hes quite the machinist also. There will be dogs, but what will they do? I can tell you its something totally different then his original design.

I am excited that something that started with having a couple of guys over has now transformed into an underground tool showcase. The exposure is more then i can imagine. We have 2500 views on JLC and there are only like twenty guys at a time during peak hours. Eric

 

[Ken Nagrod]

I hear a sucking sound.  [scratch chin]

 

[Theshipstore]

Strange I thought I was hearing the same thing  [scared]
