I had the same experience at the Seattle -Tacoma show late last year, it was
hardly worth the price of admission. I talked to the folks at the Tormek
booth who had just come from another show, in this town the major employer
had just laid off a large number of workers and the show was totally dead.
It seemed that the seminars were run by mostly factory folk rather that the
fine craftsmen just a few years back. You certainly couldn't tell that the
show had been diminished by the brochure or the promoters web site.
