So, it's not just me?!!? I always describe it as the bowl was there and then it was gone. I always seem to miss what happens in the middle!
Glad it all turned out OK.

Wow! Great list of projects. I don't think I have anything to add, he says putting his tea down on the wooden desk. I need a coaster. Coasters!! That's another one!:D
I got my wheels at a discount because the bag was open and pieces were missing. I hold the shaft for a single wheel in my chuck and use a wrench to remove the nut to change wheels.
I find that...
Dave,
I started out with the book Ken recommends and it was great for spindle turning but I needed more for face plate turning. I too got the Del Stubbs video and loved it. At the time it was the...
I turn frozen green wood all winter. Of course, it's the same temperature in the shop so it never defrosts!
Let us know how it turns out.
Nice stand! What I really like is the big stop button on the wall.
I need to so that myself. Mine is located right under the dangerous spinning object :eek:
Boy, everybody is making sinks now!
Seriously, I have one on my mantle.
Very nice Bernie! I love the way grain looks in the second picture. Looks like a topo map! Very striking.
Bravo!!! That is great and even better as a present. Great job.
I understand the base it turned but I'm curious about the top. Is that also turned? Thanks.
Great wood and a beautiful piece.
What's a calabash?
Now I'm glad I took a knitting class tonight!
That's some start! Really nice.
What's a pencil pot? - Thanks.
Getting a chuck made my lathe a whole new machine!
Have fun!
I don't turn wearing jewelry but I've had some folks comment on how clever I was to file off the corner of my tool rest so I could...
My first call is now two or three years old and I got a call saying it had broken. I made it for a friend from California so I thought some Claro Walnut burl would be nice. Turned much darker than I...
Merry Christmas Chris! Time to go open presents with the kids!!
It will have to wait until I get home as that site is blocked. *&%*%&
Must be contagious! One of the few things I've found that helps is using the clogged paper to sand my tool rest. Keeps the tool rest smooth and shiny and turns the sandpaper black. After that I'm not...
You're right, how about "Maine: So many trees, so little time"
I think the stuff I have and use is called abrasive cord.
I haven't done a deer grunt yet. On Duck calls I prefer the oily woods as the seem to hold up well in the wet environment. Other than...

I'm seeing a T-shirt with Andy wearing a lobster bib while turning a Moxie bottle.
Curt nailed it!
I find it handy to keep the size ranges for each set handy so I know how big to make tenons otherwise I end up having to switch jaws even more often!
Well, in the last picture I an Indian in the heartwood.
I can see he landscape in the first picture.
All I see in the second and third pictures is a great bowl!
Fortunately, I have problems turning any kind of wood :D
I did remove some 200 year old Chestnut from our house and I tried to turn some. Hard as concrete and it tended to fall apart along the...
Yeah, can't remember the last a mesquite tree fell down around here. :rolleyes: Nice haul!
I'll bring my 1236 over and we can have races!
Nice bowl and nice wood. As a 1236 owner I can appreciate
the extra effort it takes to turn a piece that's rocking and rolling,
bobbing and weaving.
