Seemed a successful day, plenty of people, lots of deceased sausages.
Made some progress on a surround for a poker table (wasn’t rushing, leaving something to do tomorrow). Adding a 95mm wide wooden edge, with an inlay in the centre of each (poker inlay using the Woodpecker template).

Poker Inlays
The inlays are MDF which have had a special coating – look quite spectacular. Still, these inlays represent the 3rd, 4th and 5th times I’ve ever done an inlay.
There was also plenty of interest in the Walko workbench I took along, and in the dominos I was cutting with the Festool.
The Protool UniverS SSP 200 is there as well – that is one interesting looking saw! And one hell of a depth of cut. Easier to tell in the flesh, but it is in essence a circular saw that has a chainsaw blade instead. Other than the rather unusual blade, it would be able to be used in a similar fashion to a normal handheld circular saw.

The Torque Workcentre is there as well – the upgraded version of the router master (which means it now has movement on both the X and Y axis).

Torque Workcentre
I haven’t taken any photos at the show as yet – will do so tomorrow.
