Hated to miss it as well this year.
We did miss several of you folks, including you & Charlie...Brent.

Can't believe you're getting rid of the chicken rotisserie. What are you planning on asking for that?

The Chicken Rotisserie is on its way to Plano to be with my growing St Paul Steam collection. :)

Rarely is one of my challenges nearly 100% me, that one is close.

I had a very successful 2 days of consignment selling at "cabin fever" it greatly exceeded my expectations. The consignment area got off to a bad start with computer issues & a delay of opening for about 1.5 hrs. Folks were crowding at the door and they made an announcement for people to "back away from the door" before they opened them, once doors opened it was a literal feeding frenzy of buyers.
Many forum folks were there & I enjoyed visiting with all of them.

Excellent News!

Did you buy anything?

Also, thank you for quickly posting the videos of Cabin Fever.  I am watching them this morning.

I saw the steam tractor and trailer and it was beautiful. I sold my Jensen 100 before I got the tag on it. I was lucky that I sold more than I bought and I was super happy with what I picked up at the auction. First time there and well worth it.

Seems like the very definition of "cabin fever"--people cooped up all winter and dying to get out and buy stuff!

I didnt buy much at all, a handful of carbide drills, a Jensen #5 off of Jed, & a Grizzly GO803Z 9" tabletop bandsaw for next to nothing.
re:videos, your welcome. I started kinda late as it was nearing 9am & the doors were getting ready to open for the masses.
