We just got back from another great AWFS Fair in Las Vegas. If you aren’t familiar, AWFS is the Association of Woodworking & Furnishings Suppliers and its a show that occurs every other year at the Las Vegas Convention Center. This is just a quick video to give you an idea of what the show is like. Booths and product displays as far as the eye can see and lots of neat stuff to drool over. I even have some footage of the all wood sports car, “The Splinter”, as well as a quick look at the Belt Sander Races. And as if that wasn’t enough, the one and only Matt Vanderlist from Matt’s Basement Workshop makes a guest appearance at the end of the video! Tool demos and the student furniture exhibit will soon follow.
