I would like to see something happen in the Northwest and am still willing to donate or help to get something going.

Any good organizers out there?

Hi, I am new to the forum. I think a spring cnc swap meet would be great. I have more than a truck load of surplus electronic mechanical and cnc/tool items available for this kind of event. I am in Battle Ground WA near Vancouver. A trip to Western WA, would not be a problem. Another local group to alert would be the Portland Model Engineers. They have a web site and Yahoo group if you google them.

I am down for a swap meet if it is in Oregon or on the Oregon side of Washington.

I just found this thread. I would be interested in a swap meet as well. I am in the Seattle area but could travel some distance. What are we thinking? a warehouse or someone's back yard, or ?

I have hundreds and hundreds of pounds of linear rails, ballscrews, brushless motors, etc. that I would be interested in swapping. Also some nice CO2 lasers. I could even hold a little laser demonstration of a 35 watt and a 50 watt RF excited laser.

I wonder how bad my wife would kill me if we held it at my house on the river....

I think she would be happy as im sure where ever you have all that stuff stored she would like to see it go.

But really I think for this to happen all were missing is someone to step forward with a spot

Portland/Vancouver is probably the best compromise in terms of distance for the majority of people who posted in this thread. I'd be more than willing to hold it at my place but I am all the way down in Salem. If anyone is interested let me know.

Me and the wife used to go to the coast each year and we would stop in salem and go to Lancaster Mall for the sword store there
