Excellent News!

Did you buy anything?

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

Post by: Rambling Ed on January 19, 2025, 08:26:23 pm: 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.

Post by: St Paul Steam on January 19, 2025, 08:26:13 am: 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.

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.

You sure bring a interesting assortment of goodie`s to cabin fever.
You guy`s are fortunate to have a community that can actually meet.

Have a great time, Bruce :-)
Thanks Ola, its a 9 hr
Drive for me...so not just around the corner, but hopefully worth it.

Wish I was heading to Cabin Fever to take those wood splitters home!! 😍 😍 if you haven’t ever noticed, I love splitting wood 😂
You could do this, Nick. Just over 1200 miles for you.

You are a genuine road warrior!
A case of Red Bull @ Nick could make it anywhere in a day or two 😎

Bet you're excited about Cabin Fever!!!!
yes, I am, I wasn't sure I was going to be able to make it until just a few days ago, Gil was supplying me with many hotel/motels that might still have room, & I was able to land a pretty good deal @ a hotel, I've stayed at before. havnt been for a couple of years & i'm looking forward to seeing the gang & having a rip-roaring good time. :)

P.S Australia could have a 'Cabin Fever' expo also in January.....but for a completely different reason!

Got up at 6.00am to do some machining, its nearly 12.30pm Tuesday now and its way too hot to be out there for the rest of the afternoon :( so inside with the A/C.
lol...as Ruby & Jimmy put it, how can people live there :D , we all have our own little (sometimes big) issues with where we live don't we, but hey, we're used to it & it's part of our way of life.
