I agree that participation is key Posted Image .. and we had many of them Posted Image .. so interest is obvious and high Posted Image .. i would like to see the number of participants double for the next W/E build Posted Image .. this is an active forum .. so that is possible .. anyway .. i enjoyed it .. KOODOS to all ! Regards ! Posted Image

Absolutely! Maybe Ron, Peter, 2whl. It's Summer here in the northern hemisphere so people have bbq's etc. In the Fall/Spring I bet we get a greater turnout.

I'd be up for it again.. (I'll even remember to take tha camera home for the weekend too)

However, Paul makes a valid point. Too often and it will go stale. I'd suggest twice a year.

Twice a year is good. Perhaps we can do the next one in October before Snowboarding season kicks in for me?
