Sticky Weekend

[paul_croote]

We are planning to hold the sticky weekend on the 26th and 27th of January 2013, For anyone who hasn’t attended before, it's a great opportunity to gain the knowledge and skills required for repairing and building boats, foils and spars etc. . Anyone planning on bringing projects / boats please post details so I can prepare.

Saturday evening social /meal will be in the local curry house

Accommodation, if you are feeling brave and have a good sleeping bag you are welcome to stay in the workshop or the local Travelodge is only about a mile away. There are also loads of local B&B's

The workshop address is - Unit B1, Oldmixon Crescent, Weston-s-Mare, North Somerset. BS24 9AY.

For people wanting to save on costs there is also some floor/bed spaces at ours.
It is a 35 minute drive away.

...you mean sleep inside! Where's the fun in that? 

Out of respect for Sam's wishes I think we'll bag floor space at the Trims.

Sam's school are happy for him to do a T-foil conversion on Loco's spare rudder if Ade signs it off as Sam's work.

We would need to rout some med/high density foam, then begin laminating the carbon...or at least be clear how to complete it at home/school.

I can video Sam doing it if school need some more evidence.

Congrats for the Inlands and thank you for offering these weekends.

I'll get the bacon in 

[stom]

We're up for it too. Really looking forward to it.

Projects as yet undecided, as it depends on what I get done over Christmas. Is there any access to any spar mandrels that weekend?

[john_hamilton]

If im not too snowed under with jan exams, I would like to bring cheese down so we can all work out whos small enough to fix the crack under the foredeck (eddie?, dean/simon?, hayley?)

[Torchy]

Can give you and Cheese a lift John as I don't think we'll take Loco

[stom]

Nigel if you need some foam prior to the weekend so you & Sam can make a start on the foil sections, let me know and I'll see if I can bring what you need to Carsington.  That should then allow you to laminate with carbon and fix in place over the sticky weekend.

[Torchy]

Thanks Tom but we haven't got routing facilities. I think it's rout and fair it on the Saturday and first layer of carbon Sunday.

Happy to buy foam off you, bring it to the sticky(?)

[paul_croote]

Yes, no problem

provisionally please can i come and bring Sweet Dreamzzz to fit kite hoop and pole sliding guide near the mast.

[Tim Noyce]

Could I possibly pre book the boom mandrel?! I've got a few projects potentially lined up, but that is the one which would be most beneficial of external help!

[roland_trim]

Boom Mandrel. I think yes - it is in my garage atm.
John H. is the other possible for this.
