I am hoping it comes off well and we can do more of these kinds of events like maybe a bookbinding/logbook or LTC creation event etc....

LBM,

We'll bring our LTCs to share and to use as examples of some of the carving approaches. OK?

The description said something about attenders coming to share their techniques and learn others. I would not be able to share anything particularly special, but would love to learn. Would that kind of ... selfish reason for coming be appropriate? I am getting ok at carving with gouges, but would love to learn new transfer techniques or how to carve with other tools.

What a great idea! I can't wait! I will gladly demonstrate using a needle to carve. Will also bring some lights with magnifiers...needle carving is really detailed! If anyone else has a lighted magnifier...bring it along! I will also bring LTCs to demonstrate and trade!

Butterfly Suzy,

Of course you should come. Not everyone will be doing demos. Some will just be there to learn. Some will becoming to teach and learn (us). So come one, come all. This is just so we have an excuse to share and chat and exchange.

Oh you could make it if you wanted....AND....hold a lesson/demonstration on how you carve those amazingly tiny, little, bitty, microscopic letters and stamps. (no one carves smaller) Shoot, if you come I'll even throw in some extra PZKut, an xacto, and a magnifying loop to sweeten the deal.
