The best use of punky hickory is to smoke a brisket or something!!!
I use the made in the US ones from Packard. I've probably done over 100 in the last couple of years and never had a problem with any of them. Buying 10 at a time you get 10% discount.

Kelvin, very nice! I use the same top on most of my mills. I like the onion shape and can't tell that it make any difference in use over a rounded top. So far I've done a little over a 100 mills. I...
I buy all mine from Packard if you buy 10 or more you get a 10% discount.

Me too,
Thanks, Bill Hunt
When I'm doing pepper mills I use WD-40 or wax. The heat in the forstner bit melts the wax and then I re-insert and drill some more. don't try to drill too deep or you're going to find yourself in...
I forgot to mention that the blackwalnut is still some of my hurricane Katrina wood but I'm beginning to run out it, but that does'nt mean I want another storm of that size. I'm getting too old for...
Thanks for all the kind words, when I put a piece of wood on the lathe I have no idea how it's going to look when I'm done. So, no two are ever the same. That can be problematic when I'm doing Salt...
Hey folks,
I have'nt posted anything in a while mnainly because an 18 month young grandbaby is keeping me busy but here are 3 pepper mills that were a special order. Local black walnut and red...
Thanks to all of you who responded. That gives me enough info to know that I need to get to work quickly and save as much as I can. I'll also take it to our turning club meeting next month to share...
I do, but now what do I do with it? How does it turn? no one I've talked to has turned it. The butt section in the photos is 30"
we had to cut sections off the main piece before my tractor would...
I'm with John also, I'm kinda of a semi recluse but I'm working on it.

You only have to be good at one of two things, planting in the spring or begging in the fall
Thanks for your comments folks, I hope this will be enough to get through the spring season. I'm ready to move on to other things.

Thanks, Bob, i got the Sorby Texturing tool when Craft Supplies had a one day sale on dec. 29th. I think it was 15 or 20% off. This is all I've tried so far but I like the results.
Bill
Here's 30 calls and a bunch of strikers ready for the upcoming season. I'll try to add a couple of photos to show the texturing I've added this year. Sorry about the bluring of the photo of the 30...
Ken,I don't have a web site but I will take some photos and post them here to show I turn the pots and strikers. I've found that if you think finials and start at the small end and turn back to the...
Hi Ken, Bill Hunt here. Beautiful calls! Making pot calls is just another part of this addiction....
I made up a chuck for mounting my pots using a piece if 3/8" all thread through a piece of oak...
