Pacific Northwest Social Gathering
 

Following the excellent example of our South African colleagues, three of the Pacific Northwest Mechmate builders (Joe #53, Travish and BuiBui) got together to check out BuiBui's fine machine and discuss their projects.

Many thanks to BuiBui for hosting us and letting us pick his brains about his excellent work as seen in these photos.

ok....I have to make a set of those VW people!

Talk to BuiBui, they're his.:)

Joe

Was good to meet up again Joe! everyone seems to be doing well! Seeing others work and progress is very motivating to say the least.

Cheers,
Travis

Hey, do you guys know a town called Enumclaw? I used to import stuff from there about 10 years ago. Planned to visit them once and they informed me that they don't allow factory visits, after that I found a better supplier.

I used to live out there when I was a kid. I make it out that way every couple years to ski Crystal Mt.

From Wikipedia: "The name Enumclaw is derived from a Salish Native American term that translates as "place of evil spirits", apparently referring to Enumclaw Mountain, located about 6 miles (9.7 km) to the north, and referring either to some evil incident that occurred there or to the frequent powerful windstorms that affect the region."

Place of evil spirits......hmmmmmm. Maybe it is just as well that they steered me away :)
