    Question Where's Jim?

    I know I haven't been around much lately, but I HAVE noticed a conspicuous lack of postings by our own Jim Ketron. Did he win the lottery and go on a world tour? Where you at, Jimmy?? I want to venture into hollow forms soon, and I could use looking at some of his works for inspiration.

    Ed I was going to ask the same question. I figured with his nice HF's he probably got rich and famous. Doesn't have time to post anymore. Haven't seen a post from him since about the end of August. Really do miss his posts and expertise here. I was going to do some more NE's and HF's. Was hoping he would be here for some help.

    Me too, in fact I've noticed there are a number of other members not around much right now.

    I hope to see one and all of them back here in the very near future, and Jim is on that list for sure!

    Cheers!

    What....???? I'm still here. Do I still count?

    I believe that Jim is working on turning stuff and just taking a break from online chat for a while. Maybe he'll jump in here and yack at us a bit.
    Thanks & Happy Wood Chips,

    Huh........??

    What....? Oh yeah, I think I remember you.....

    Sure you are still here, so am I, but I do notice others missing. I sure hope they are all just getting ready for a productive winter in their workshops!

    I agree Stu. There are a lot of others missing. A bunch that don't post much it seems like at least for the last month or so. Like you say hopefully getting ready for winter craft fairs, etc.

    Hey Guys!
    I still pop in from time to time, Just had to take a break from the forums for a while, to keep my sanity! Plus I have been getting ready for a show that is coming up next weekend Oct 21-22 I have a lot of pics to take of some of the turnings that I have been working on. I will try to get some up this week.

    Funny. I was wondering the same thing. I miss all the nice posts.
    I could cry for the time I've wasted, but thats a waste of time and tears.
