Doug,
I have a moisture meter with 2 little spike on it. I will try checking the water level in them. It has been a few weeks now so likely it will have stabilized. But I can head back to the...

Doug,

I was not aware of High Mountain Forest products. I have put off my project because I couldn't find the materials I needed. And now that I watch the ol' thermometer head north of 90 I think I may...
Sorry no pictures with me of the warped wood.
I have one shot of how I used my table saw to try and clamp it down and straighten it.
Joshua
Interesting. I was storing it vertically.
But it did have support along it's length. I wonder...
I will lay what remains out flat when I got home and see if it straightens at all.

No rain. They were just in my fully closed-in garage. I live in Utah very little humidity or moisture in the air here. The sheet was standing on edge. The bottom edge, 48" wide, was on the...
A number of years ago I started building plywood cabinets for my workshop. I needed to get my turning tools stored, and all of the bits and pieces. In addition I needed to get the various tools...
It was pretty late when I sent this out last night and I was using a tablet with only the touch screen keyboard so I was I fear light on details.
It is old enough that I couldn't find much in the...
I am upgrading my sharpening system to CBN wheels. And thought it time for a new grinder. I got a Rikon 1hp, the larger one, but have yet to do anything with it at all.
Today I was offered a...
Robo Hippy,
A very interesting thought using the Trend lapping fluid. I have a big bottle of it that I bought for using on my flat hones. And 2 years and about 5-10 drops later it would seem I...
I have come back and read this thread a number of times. I just did again as I get ready to make the purchase. Seems that once my twins got old enough to give me some space work interfered. But I...
Any update Reed? I have been talking to Ken about options etc... I am tempted by the 600 grit for putting a fine edge on both the skew and the bowl gouge. But if there is no real difference on the...
Greg,
Hey! Who you callin' old?!!? :) It might be old but for me at least, as just described in another message, it is as relevant today as it was years ago.
Your reply really caught my...
Interesting. Very interesting. The local Home Depot is beginning to start clearancing these things out. It amazes me that they start to do that so early in what seems to be the summer. Given that...
Awesome. I lived in Cache Valley for a long long time. I love it up there!
To answer your question: I never did it. To be honest I never did anything about the temperature in my shop. My wife...
Hey all,
After a long long dry spell I am finally getting some turning time in again. My twins are now 4 years old and well they have finally crossed the line into being somewhat...
Roger,
What grinder did you get? I am contemplating an upgrade to my sharpening setup and the new CBN wheels I am planning could benefit from a new grinder as well I guess.
Joshua
I have been looking for this kind of thing for myself. I borrowed at 14k BTU unit from a friend, I was going to buy it if it worked, and here in SLC it would get to only about 82 on a 95+ degree...
Wow. That was seriously amazing to watch! Wow...

Rick,
what blade where you using for making this cut as pictured? Is this the stock DeWalt blade? Or is this a replacement blade?
Joshua
Thanks for the feedback. I suppose I am working from a flawed baseline. I was comparing it to the cuts I have made in the past with my fathers old Craftsman circular saw. In thinking about it now...
So.... I am sure someone has beaten me to this question so I thought I would ask to see what others had to say as I puzzle it over myself.
I purchased a refurb'ed DeWalt track saw from ToolKing a...
I wanted to thank you all for the replies.
I continued to shop and then came the same conclusion that Charles mentioned. Being a turner and not a furniture builder I had made some bad...
Greg,
a reasonable question. We as a family started there. Bottom line, she is a very stubborn woman didn't like the look of it in her house. But a nice stained wood one worked wonders for her....
Been a long time since i have posted here. Been almost that long since I got to do any woodworking/turning. But finally I got thrown in the brier patch. :) Grandma, who is 93, just got a run about...
I think it looks great. The Ambrosia Maple is just stunning. If were to be negative at all I would have a liked a little more contrast between the top and the stem. But maybe that is just that I...
