    Mate it was great to see you doing so well at the show you thoroughly deserve all the good stuff coming your way. The mallets are incredible and I love the sword which has taken pride of place on the wall in my office next to a little mini mallet.
    Next year you should set up a selfie camera with a Bluetooth switch so people that come to see you can get an instant selfie with you :)

    Amazing builds, I only wish I was that skilled as you are. Keep on making things, the weapons are especialy atractive. It is ashamed that makers central is in the UK and the US but not in Belgium. Maybe we can work up to that one day ;-). 😉

    If your line was that long... Maker's should really come to the party and send you some help! Well done mate, great learning experience.

    @RS474 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Both my boys both made a mini-mallets with you guys... they loved it! I totally agree, either more places to build, and/or just have a better way of queueing punters would be good next time!

    • @BrookesWood
      @BrookesWood  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I am so glad they had fun. even though it was hard work the look on the kids faces made it worth while. Yes definatley things to change for next year!

    😁 Well done for nailing the whole weekend Paul. I did loiter around your stand for a while hoping to get to meet you. But you were proper head down and in full mallet mode 😒. Ironically I bumped in to shaun (in the shed) at your stand and got a picture with him... holding one of your fine mallets. Hope to get to see you next year. Well done mate 😁👍.

    Well it sounds like you had a great show from an exhibiter point of view, but definitely not from a visitor point 😂Why did you not prepare for this hostile take over of your mallets! There fab :P Next year we can offer you some more machinery to support your stand no problem, so you know where we are when you need us 😍Also you still ow us a mallet for our showroom😎

    • @BrookesWood
      @BrookesWood  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I mean I should have prepared better, my crystal ball failed me this year :D
      If you could that would be awesome, I need to think about what I want to do. I'm thinking maybe mini axes next year!
      Well, you say that but I did have an idea for, let's just say... something else that may be a bit bigger 😂

  • @DarrenPoulson
    @DarrenPoulson 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I remember you walking past our (droidbuilders) stand on sunday and saying hello, to just get a croak back. ;)
    Chalk it up to experience, and also a testimony to how awesome your work is. I know this year and last year your prizes in the raffle were the big draw. Just need to find that balance. I know our stand this year was a lot busier with no lulls on the saturday like we had last year.
    Right, now to look at them mallets. Working on a @mattestlea dovetail box kit, and I'm sure a decent mallet will help! :D Look forward to seeing you next year.

      Ah yes the peak on my croakyness, i was so very sociable that morning.
      Thank you i appriciate it. Does that mean i have to make 2 weapons every year now?
      Well as my advert says "mallet that doesn't just get the job done-it adds a whopping 43% more coolness to your woodworking tasks. (Okay, not scientifically proven, but it should be!)"
