James, could you soak off the labels from the Lego pails before Saturday?  I
found about 15 minutes in hot water and the label peeled off nicely.

Can do.  Am doing, in fact.

James, do you have any of the following, if not I can supply these tools:
Hack saw, jigsaw, reversible variable speed drill, mitre box.

no hacksaw, no mitre box.  1 drill, 1 jigsaw.

James, do you want to store the tables I have already brought to Edmonton
until September, or do I leave them at my parents?

For now, I think leave them at your parents as long as they've got the room.
(and don't mind!)

Should I bring our ribbon from GETS 2000 to display at the Calgary show,
some of the other train clubs were doing it at GETS.

Yah, probably a good idea.  I'm not sure if we want to display it or not, but we
should make sure we've got the option.

James, were you going to pick up the pipe before Saturday, or should I pick
it up on my way to your place?  We have my 3 pails and your was it 13?

Yup, 13.

pails.  Each pail will need about a 7 inch length inside, with either the
female end sticking up, or joiners if they are available.  Then cut 12
lengths of [29.5 inch plus 7.5 inch minus what is lost in a female] to place
in the 12 wooden holders we already have, use the 12 29.5 inch grey pipes in
12 of the new pails, and then cut another 4 29.5 inch lengths.  Six or 7 ten
foot lengths would do, if we can find joiners/connectors to fit, otherwise
it will be 16 with a lot of wast!  Or back to the drawing board.

I'll pick up pipe & joiners sometime this week.  I have been needing to hit a
hardware store for a while now.  I'll just add it to my list.

(...) IMO the wooden bases should be considered a failed experiment. The piping can still be used with the "bucket-bases", and then theoretically we only need some more piping and several hundred feet of rope. I can pick up the rope - Home Depot and (...)
