That's absolutely great, you guys did a great job! The basement and machines look wonderful, Jon. Congrats and thank you on another stellar representation of the club and it's members.
Maybe if there's a clamor in the comment section for more video, they'll put up some more footage of that Unimatic on gentle speed :-)

Yeah, I hate to echo Peggy Lee, with "Is that all there is?" It's great, but as others have said about diamonds and chocolate, there's not enough. Thank all of you for making this possible. |

Great to see you all enjoying yourself. Funny that the phrase "I thought I was the only one" makes so much sense to all of us. Still when I meet people and they consider my intrests funny I refer to this website. Keep up the good work and let us all enjoy our little hobby. |

It was so much fun with everyone.
The people from CNN were just a delight to be with. More like friends than people there to interview. Of course the hospitality at The Tree House is always stellar. Glad to be there and part of it. Cheers to AW. Oh yeah, You were pretty good Jon. LOLOLOL (I'm in Florida in a area with extremely poor reception and no Internet or Wifi.) |

What a positive response , thank you everyone! It was fun and like Tom, Brent & Leon have surmised, yes there was a lot more film than was edited. In fact the interview with me was over an hour long shoot. But I think they got the kernel of what I said and what we are about. I am hoping this segment will be a "seed" to future documentation.
Al-vacbear I would love to play pitchman for you guys !! Can't wait to get back to Keymaticland !!
Brent I will ask them if I can get a copy of the footage, I tried that with CBS but they had strong policy against that. It can't hurt to ask.
I know I am a natural ham once the cameras are rolling. And they did enjoy my margaritas for sure !!! That was a funny bonus as when they were interviewing me in the early am Sam asked what else do we do at a Wash In and I said well as evening wears on we make margaritas and head back down to the basement. So they got included LOL!!
Eddie kept us mostly sober with the great food he always provides so a good time was had by all , even that scene stealer Turquoisedude !!!
Love to all !! And stick around there is murmurings of an International Convention on the horizon next summer sometime...!!!!
