Unfortunately, I'm not terribly familiar with Saratoga Springs... I live
about 90 miles from there myself and only go there for Showcase and to the
trotter track each summer on a company outing.

Our club is large and geographically spread out so we have several chapters.
The main group meets in the Albany area with a shop in Stillwater. I'm in
the Mid-Hudson chapter which meets in Hurley, NY (near Kingston) and has a
shop in Hurley (at the farm where the movie Tootsie with Dustin Hoffman was
filmed). As it is, I'll be getting a room in Saratoga myself as I'm giving
presentations on advanced handcut dovetailing and am involved with
coordinating some activities...

I'll be wearing a name tag so say Hi if you see me!

This is a good show, and I've seen some excellent presentations. Roy
Underhill actually sweat (sweated? swat?) on me last year. And
Saratoga is a nice town, too. I'll be there.

On second thought...
