Fragging/Dipping workshop 6/5, 10a-12p

[JVU]

We really need at least 1 of the bandsaws to get there in working order. And at least one person familiar with using them (I’m not).

 

[Plankton]

What dips, frag plugs, gel superglue and epoxy?

 

[Plankton]

We will bring some but I would recommend people bring their own too (at least to have available in the car) in case I forget something, or to see different approaches

What about frag plugs, gel super glue and epoxy for SPS? Dunno about softies. Been reef keeping for 30 years but mostly SPS.

@Wlachnit put me down on that list. I'll bring the South bay frag saw. I'm picking it up from @Krak256 when I get back in town.

 

[H2OPlayar]

I will be bringing all the frag plugs from my first year in reefing! And my 2x cutters and glue. I can bring dip too if we want that, since it is a dipping workshop.

 

[xcaret]

I have some coral dip for the event; I cannot attend, wonder if anyone from SF can pjck it up from me to bring it to the frag workshop?

 

[xcaret]

@Mozby may have another Inland bandsaw.

 

[Ibn]

Let me know if you guys can't scrounge up another saw. I can stop by with my Gryphon saw and do some catching up.

 

[JVU]

We have 5 Maybe replies in the poll still- @Coral reefer , @Finnaddict , @Eugene , @Oliver , @Srt4eric

Are any of you able to switch to a Yes yet?

@JVU

 

[Srt4eric]

And I have one of the clubs saws to bring

 

[Wlachnit]

We're getting close to the event! Looks like we're good on most things needed for fragging. However, we can always use extra. If anyone has any fragging supplies such as:

• Dipping containers
• Baster
• Coral cutters
• Forceps
• Frag plugs/discs
• Coral glue
• Folding table
• CORALS to frag - live or dead

I plan on having some starter SPS frags available. (Too hard to get them out of my tank as bigger colonies. So, they always end up breaking apart)

Time to clean out my garage..... and sorry Yash, the trains won't be running that day

Apologies for the terrible pic through algae film covered acrylic, but if someone wants to stop by my place on the way to party, you’re welcome to pick up this big ‘ol yellow sinularia (nepthea?) to cut into a few pieces, and more importantly, practice getting mounted. Wish I could make it, but I’ve got plumbing to do this weekend

 

[Wlachnit]

Thanks for offering
