Andre was there in person and he brought his gear. He's moved to RTP, so hopefully he'll be a regular on Fridays. :D

Dan, was great to meet you and the other guys last Friday.

Sorry guys, didn't make it today with work...but I can come another day for sure. If you're planning to come and want to see a Forge in action, just send me a message or email and I'll let you know if I can come that week.

Just to disappoint more, Forges are mostly all sold out (with a decent size waiting list), probably for a while as I don't have anyone to machine the parts, outlook doesn't look great in the short term. Long term I'm thinking of getting CNC machines myself, but I know it will be a process to get everything back up and running.

Anyway, I only mention in case the interest is to try before you buy.

It was great heading out back in the summer and meeting everyone. Anything of interest going on this this coming Friday December 22? It would be good to connect again if possible.

I'll be in town for Christmas and would love to come the following Friday, the 29th. I checked their calendar and they are scheduled to be doing the usual tastings at 10am; will you espresso folks still be doing the early gathering?

There are a few hardcore regulars that rarely miss a Friday; I'm a bit hit-and-miss lately. I'll likely swing by the next couple Fridays. :D Mid next week, I'd like to stop by Black & White Coffee Roasters in Wake Forest. I would first like to confirm Lem will be around so I can say hello!

Cool, I will drop in this Friday around 8 and may do the same on the 29th as well.

Update, looks like I will only be able to come by on the 29th.

I will finally be able to drop by this Friday AM and will bring my DE1 plus if I do. I was planning on coming back late summer and ended up being called away for business travel.

Anyone interested in dropping by Friday AM to check it out?
