Allright, I made a donation to get back to current contributor stats. I'll relist the lathe later on.
thanks for the info.

Woops, sorry for the confusion on the lathe for sale deal. I'll remove all the info. I'd delete this post, but can't find a delete button. :confused:

Thanks for the heads up to all. just figured...

Ken,
I encourage you to look at his site :

They can and will answer all of your questions on this subject. A terrific group of people, and even access direct to MFG's. ...

Wow, I think you nailed it. Sure would fit in with them thinking it was mahogany too, as well as the way it grows all twisted and such.

I may just have learned something today!

Leaning towards chinese elm due to the bark.
thoughts?

Hi folks. Can someone help out here with wood ID? I'm drawing a blank. wood came off a tree in southern Idaho. Owner thinks it's ....ahem....Mahogany....I don't recall any Mahogany trees this far...

I have good luck with Thunderbird, and I downloaded the "calendar" add-on for it. a perfect match as far as I'm concerned.

Ken, let me know and I'll do some digging, but I think I have some bocote blanks you are welcome to. Possibly wenge too. I'll dig around a little when it gets light out today. Holler if you want some...

Definitely! Going to get at least an 18" out of it for them!

OK, so there we were sanding away at the latest airplane project getting ready for paint, when the neighbor rolls in and asks me if I could give him a hand. No problem says I. I walk over to his...

Sorry to disagree here...but....I've been using these for a long while. The Husky has an adjustment screw to dial back the rpm's. No problem with overheating, or lack of power at all. Seriously....

Yup, in fact, there's lots of info on the FAQ pages. Check here:http://www.sawmillcreek.org/misc.php?do=bbcode

Well, looks like we get to start calling you Popeye now! What a fantastic experience! Can only imagine the fun you must have had.

Curtis, I use one of these: Husky

It's worked better than any other sander I've tried. Super easy sanding. Pick up a 2" disc kit for it with the wavy edge discs and go to town!

Happy Birthday Ken!:cool::cool:

Jim, I dumped the jar of Techron in it, and I figured on some Marvel for the crankcase. Not familar with the type of injector cleaner you mention. Could you give me some info? Sounds like a good deal...

Well, that was a fun day....not.

What a job. Man, you'd think Jeep could have designed a bit easier engine to work on! Who's the idiot that decided to put the distributor cap back THERE?! And...

That's on the agenda for this morning. We've got a cylinder leakdon tool we use on the aircraft engines during annual inspections. I'll try to find the correct adapter for the auto plug threads and...

Hey that reminds me. We've got a borescope out at the hangar. I'll try to get it tomorrow and take a peek inside those cylinders and see if there is any scoring or other obvious signs.

Still, my...
