Cabin Fever 2025

[ChazzC]

I made up a small list last night . Small , because the items are large and heavy . Only one truck and trailer going up Chazz . 4 or 5 Kennedy boxes , Kurt vises , bench vises , motors .

MORE Kurt vises???

Between Reading and Allentown. Not sure if we are meeting on Saturday or Sunday yet, so might be doable since that is only an hour away from Lebanon.

Hell, Dave drives 1-1/2+ hours from his place (I'm spoiled – when I'm allowed to drive, only 1/2 hour for me )

Chazz spots a drone over Lancaster !

Seems reasonable – drone batteries are less than 24V (the limit for the Amish they are wizards at 12V/24V relay control systems).

2 6" Kurts to go . I drove it up and back 4 times last year . Not a bad drive going thru Lancaster .

Certainly more scenic than 83.

Did you drive through Creswell?

If it was just me, it wouldn’t be a problem, but having my family with me complicates it.

You don't understand: SO & Family drop you off, they go do tourist stuff, then pick you (and your new possessions) up and head back to Kutztown.

The only thing we have here in the UK these days, is the Midlands Model Engineering Exhibition at the Warwick Exhibition Centre (used to be one at Alexandra Palace in London too, but that hasn't reappeared since COVID). You do get used machines and tooling for sale at the Midlands exhibition but only on dealers' stalls. There doesn't appear to be any facility for joe public to set up a stall.

If I lived in the US, it would be inked in red in my calendar, and god forbid any family member dying, having a funeral or giving birth on those days!

Cabin Fever is quite interesting . Easy to spend the entire day just taking in all the exhibitions . Tools are everywhere . They have auction areas , for sale by owners , dealers etc . The RC section is out of this world as is the motor models .

I'd like to get there sometime. Kind of a haul for me. Weather is the wild card, January has some interesting weather in the North East.
