I was a vendor at the first one a few years back. Not a good set-up for vendors but a chance to see parts in a heated space...wink

Dpending on how much space they assign and how well they clean the shop, might be a good deal. Probably set up like at Karls, everyone gets a stall, then filling open spaces. They have a decent size shop, so if they fill it there will be lots of stuff.

I was shoved way back in a corner on the West side with very limited access by the spectators and didn't get a lot of traffic as a result. The main aisle had much more traffic and room to move.

If its usually a big turn out I would be interested in going and doing a walk through. How many vendors are usually there?

If I remember right, there were about 27 swap spaces. It's in the repair shop, 1 vendor per work stall. There's only a couple hours left now already, so get going.....you may get the best prices of what's left at the end. I dang near GAVE parts away just so I didn't have to load them up and drag them home again...no

Oh, my bad, I thought it was today...confuseno

OK, then I may try to go for a couple hours at opening too.

I had to limb some Oaks that were scraping on the roof of my shop today, so wasn't going to go. What a pain trying to walk, hold a pole saw and move the ladder all at the same time in knee deep snow..furious

I was there. Lots of stuff, I bought a few things, nothing too special though-just stuff to resell on Ebay. It was like a mini Back to the '50s swap meet.
