Default 2012 Gatormeet

Here are the dates for the 2012 Gatormeet.

May 11,12,13 2012

Address is ..

5916 Laurel court
Adamstown Maryland 21710
Cell…240-674-2101

I have 3 acres so parking and camping are no problem.
I have a moderate equipped shop but bring any equipment you want. No projects as of yet but have plenty of things to do. If you want to bring your own project that’s fine. If your project is larger than a hood please let me know in advance.

This will be a Friday thru Sunday event. Come for 1 hour or all three days.
We will serve lunch and dinner Saturday and lunch Sunday. Friday will be a fend for yourself. Might try and work something in for dinner Friday

Cost ……FREE. All donations will be accepted.

Please bring your own safety equipment. As the date gets closer I will set some projects up.

I would like a head count so I know how much food to get..

There are plenty of hotels in Frederick Maryland about 10 minutes away..


More to follow……Gator

Heres one project for the meet. 1950 8 n tractor. We will be doing some grill work along with some hood repair.

Theres also a thread i have followed an im going to try to carry it to the meet. Its the thread tricks you thought everyone knew. Sometimes things get lost in the translation. I challenge everyone who is going to be at the gator meet to demo there trick or tricks to the group. Even if you dont think its a breakthru idea or process. Some times its how the person does it.

Along with this i would also like to challenge everyone to bring a list of things they would like to see in the trick area. So start getting ideas together...Gator
