Here's a link to one that I copied when I made mine. It works very well. I hope it does for you.

Thank you, so much.
I appreciate your sentiments and all the kind words. We are all grieving the loss of our beloved Bruno, but your words are comforting.
Colin, our vet is a friend of ours...
I met him about fifteen years ago. He and I immediately hit it off. He was a very energetic youngster and I was much older. His name was Bruno and he was a beautiful Welsh terrier. My family and I...
I have not looked at this is few years but, I believe part or all of your SS income will be taxable. There is a limit on the amount of other income you can make, without causing your SS to be...
Another vote for Vince and his products. He believes in great service and his products work very well.
Thanks guys for your kind words. We have had an eventful early summer and I look forward to getting back to the fun stuff.
Well, after a tree fell into my house about a month ago, I have not had much time in the shop. We are recovering and now are into the painting and finishing stages.
I have finished one bowl that I...
I have edited my original post with some pics. Got a tree service coming over this morning to start the process of getting this monster off the house.
Thanks for your kind thoughts. A good friend...
Well, I got a lot of wood to cut and turn. A sixty foot or so hickory tree fell in my back yard tonight during a thunderstorm. It hit the back of my house and crushed the breakfast room where I used...

I have made a bunch of shaving brush handles of all different sizes, styles and lengths. You were well on your way to a lovely brush handle. I don't set my knots as deep as you are and that...

I also use a face shield.
This is the first thing I put on...
Great looking piece, Steve! Do you use India ink to do the ebonizing? Really like the way the lid continues the shape of the HF. Thanks for showing it.
Beautiful call! Those things are hard to blow.;)
Good luck in the competition. It is a winner in my book.

I have rough turned some Chinaberry bowls. They are in the drying process now. The wood was easy to turn and has a reddish brown color with some light sap wood. I have a log that a friend gave...
My father-in-law was a nineteen year old Sargent on D Day. He survived and went on to fight in the Battle of the Bulge and was wounded in Belgium. He never spoke of his experiences until his grandson...

Beautiful work, as always! I have a real appreciation for boxes. I have turned a bunch of them, but that one is a beauty.
I got a call from a friend to see if I wanted some wood. I drove by to find a complete Cherry tree cut and stacked for me. This is only half of the wood.
I am concerned that the wood has already...
Hilel:
God Bless you and your family and friends. I have always enjoyed your posts on this site. I will keep you in my prayers.

This is one beautiful box! I love the color combo and your signature finial is great. Thanks for showing it here.
Bill:
Depending on the shape of the stoppers, I use CA finish. It they are relatively smooth it works well. Good luck. Make sure you post them when done.
Bonnie:
I have used a strap wrench to get things off my lathe. Sears sells a nice one.
It is good to hear from you again. Let us know how it works out.
Dick:
Thanks for the link. Neal Addy's tutorial is great!
Keith:
Your work and the photos look great! I just built a light box and I am still trying to figure this out.;) I am not much of a woodturner but I know nothing of photography. A local photographer...
Thanks Greg. It is a grasshopper napkin ring.;) I won't use this when I get through setting up this light box.
