Any Dorset based Carvers

[Dorset Hedgelayer]

the title is my 1st question

or if anyone wants to make a trip of it.

will explain more, but bare with I know nothing of costings/ time scale's etc in your field of work

 

Melplash Hedgelaying and ploughing 28th Sept, were looking for some events/entertainment (normal day start about 9.30 until 3-4pm) looking for a carver that might like to come along and do a bit.

After chatting to some carvers at another show early on this year.

Still not sure on what is the "normal" set up for carvers at shows.

 

2nd We cant say how many people would be passing all weather depending (will enquire about numbers, Im normally in contest and busy)

3rd To try and make it good for visitors would 4 x 1/2 hrs carvings be worth it for the carver bit like speed carve rather than 1 would hope you can sell there and then or what ever you think would/will work

4th what would you want, barrier, cover, etc.

 

5th now the big question how dose the money side of things work out. We all know what committees can be like cant pay, wont pay, will pay X amount , you keep all you make etc you keep all you make just a little donation etc ,

 

Im on the sub committee but dont have any financial say
