John, whatever way you go on finish, it will be striking......people will notice it a mile away. I personally like color in certain pieces and I tend to go that direction on this one. I think of a...
I would love about 3 minutes in a room along with this a$$hat. He would have to learn to type with his nose.
If any of you have recieved and e-mail from "me" I am not stranded in Manilla and I don't need money!!! My e-mail address, my entire contact list, and all of my e-mail folders have been stolen by a...
Terrible news for both of you and prayers to both.
Thanks everyone for your comments. I am begining to get my hat to fit properly.:D
I never post any of my work with the idea of getting a cover, etc. The reason I do it is to hopefully it give...
That's the one
Congrats Scott Hackler on your article in Woodturning Design. Very interesting reading.
David, I never even started to read the thread so Roger's post prompted me to go back and start reading. I only read probable a page and a half and quit. You'r right, it will give you a headache. ...
Ditto what everyone has said. Great job.
Thanks everyone for the comments
I have been practicing turning beads with a Drozda style spindle gouge. I have become fairly good at turning larger beads (1/2" to 3/8") so once I turned this Box Elder exterior to become a HF I...
Greg, I have mixed a number of things with epoxy to fill cracks, etc. You could use old coffee grounds. I have used artist chalk sticks (ground into a fine powder) You can get hundreds of...

Along with whacky box part pieces I have been exploring more not so conventional turnings. This piece is Curley Maple 9"x6" air brush dyed. A 1/4" slot was carved out winding around the HF ending...
After viewing the Moulthrop video, my question is exactly what type of resin/epoxy does he use? There is exothermic and indothermic resin.
John, thank you for being the ONLY person to comment. I guess I should take this that I have a stinker on my hands.:eek: Oh well, guess ya can't have a winner every time.
I am back again with another fun exercise.....taking various turning parts and coming up with finished pieces. I call the piece "Heavy On My Mind".
In the second picture you can see the parts...
I am using a desk top hinged arm lamp which is so so. I have it on a stand that goes on a construction light. It often is a real pain to move around do to shavings on floor. Puting the light on...
Thanks everyone.
I was rumaging through my turning parts boxes ( believe me, I have a number of them) trying to find a piece that I could use on a turning I am working on. I found it and proceeded. It did get me...
Just wondering if fellow Creekers in the states affected by the tornados are OK?? Sure hope so. What a mess.
Send it to me:eek::confused::confused::D.
Brian, DON'T THROW IT AWAY!!!!! IT IS BURN BARREL OPPORTUNITY.:eek::D What I would do is set them out of the way and keep looking at them. Sooner or later something will come to mind as far...
Steve, There actually is/was a UK turner who always wore formal attire. Can't remember his name but he was definately a gentleman turner.
