Never seen one that would take me more than 2 hours to be done unless the seminars were good.


Unfortunately that has become the norm, or maybe we just skip the ones
we recognize and are no long interested in seeing.

Back in the late 70's and early 80's i recall seeing shows in Houston
that were big enough that you might miss something if you did not spend
all day.

I recall many many booths selling single tools. Like the router ringer
tool that would let you make a bowl with a router from a single square
piece of wood. The solid steel router tables that operated like the
Multirouter. Remember the guy selling the Zyless vice? ;~) And many
many more.
