    turned one piece yesterday, came out pretty nice, while taking it off the lathe I accidentally chipped the foot, in the process of gluing it back together. I'll be sure to post some pics of whatever I turn tomorrow.

    Nice haul. If you're running out of room, you can always send a block or two my way .

    Can't wait to see what you do with it.

    Beautiful haul!

    Alex, You are going to have to get busy turning all your treasures or selling them off to buy a bulding to store it all in! Wood is a great addiction and I have it in triplicate! Have fun and keep turning away at the pile as you will never see the bottom ever again!

    Well I'd be more than happy to give you a few pieces of olive for free, as well as some other wood if you want it. I got plenty. I don't have a bandsaw though so the pieces I give you will have to be rather large.

    What time are you in town on Tuesday? I'm at school from 9-5
