Any one else go last week?
A bit of a surprise who wasn't there, compared to 4 years ago (my last trip).

Biggest hole was Haas, big display last time and some cutting.

My friend with a job shop was looking for a large lathe, none this time.

A lot of major names missing. We only spent about 3 hours this year.

I was going to head over since I would be in the area anyways, mostly just to stop by a few booths and say "hi" to some guys I knew would be there. I ended up getting sidetracked, though.
 
i was there along side some of our wisconsin and illinois sales reps working my employers booth(Ingersoll Cutting Tools)

Tuesday was terribly slow and Wednesday was great until about 1:30 then it died fast. not much for name brand machines but i felt there was a mix of odd name machine tool brands there.

not sure about Thursdays turnout, i wasn't able to work the show that day.

not sure if we will do our own setup again next time or merge with a few distributors
