Please forgive me if this is out of turn.

I will be going to BushMoot for the first time this year and would like to contribute. What I had in mind was a couple of workshop/ show and tell session(s).

As I only have expertise in the following areas I was thinking on the lines of a hobo stove show and tell get together and another where items from the pound shop or similar are put to good use.

I have no idea of if all I should do is stick a note on the main whiteboard or there is a more formal way!
I have no idea if this is something which only interests me!

Comments / directions / ridicule welcome

Both me and my Dad (Hammock_man) would like to show and share a few of our low budget solutions which we have become fond of and hopefully others will enjoy their simplicity. From a pack-able Hobo Stove which only cost £6 to build to windshields which only cost £1 (plus a bit of tape)

Sounds good - Mr Fenna does a cheap gear guide (on how to make your own!) & George often does a campfire cooking show and tell.

Make sure you enjoy the moot - probably worth spending a day to see how things work before diving into teaching!

That should be no problem guys. It's what we do. Just let Tony, or one of the mods know and it'll be slotted in, and probably mentioned at the morning meeting. Then just prep your session and wait to see who turns up. Simples!

I used to be an IT instructor so I have an idea about running a session but I was thinking along an informal format. Any way, I will let my self be known and take it from there.

These sessions are normally pretty informal. More like a "Q&A" with some "show and tell" and a "have a go" bit if appropriate.
As well as the more formal pre-moot, 3 day leatherworking course, I'll be doing a half day informal leatherwork session (possibly Couarans - traditional Irish/Scottish shoes) or something of that ilk. Jump in on that if you want and see how I do my sessions. The fact that I also have the kettle on the boil throughout, and biccies makes it even more informal and a lot more fun and a social occasion.
