FEGA

[papart1]

I decide today to join my brothers and sisters and apply to fega for membership. I think this will be a good thing. rob

Welcome to FEGA .
I'm sure you will gain many benefits from your membership
The Engraver magazine alone is worth the annual dues.

Ditto John's comments. If you can make the FEGA show and annual meeting in January you will find that an amazing experience...rubbing elbows with dozens of fellow engravers...and a friendlier bunch you could not hope for!

thanks for respones, due to being a hobbyist I doubt if the trip to LV is in my crystal ball, yet. For now I will just post and get feedback from you all,

Got my new belt from Mr. Al Bino near Pitts in Pa. Glued up and resting for 24, will advise of outcome. My 1946 south bend 9 x 36 will back up running soon.

 

[Mike Fennell]

Welcome. Recommend you attend the show in Las Vegas in January. Great engraving, great people, and Sam's guitars.

 

[Mike Dubber]

I agree - a few days at FEGA with fellow engravers is just what you need to start learning....nothing like it anywhere!

Ditto to what @MikieDu said. Joining FEGA is half the fun. Participating in FEGA is the other half and you really should plan to attend. You will thank us later

Well guy's with what is going on in 2018 and forward half of '19, the show will be put on the back burner for a time. We've been to LV 4 times in the past and NONE since retireing in 2005, partially due to medical reasons. I put the bug in someone's hear possibly for the '19 show, I hope. rob Thanks for the reply's and encouragement, they are very much appreciated.
