    Smile Tis the Season 2016

    Wow – time flies! Another year’s gone by way too fast and the Holiday Season is upon us! While we all share the love of woodturning, it goes without saying that we are a diverse group and have many different ways of celebrating at this time of year. I am extremely thankful for many things but especially for my loving family, all my friends here on the Creek and throughout the woodturning world!

    So, in keeping with the spirit of this newly arrived Holiday Season ……. from my shop to yours …..

    Have a wonderful - and SAFE - Holiday Season!

    What could possibly be prettier than Christmas lights on a Robust!

    Ah -- indeed "Tis the season" officially now -- the annual lighting of the lathe.

    Some folks think it is the Macy's parade that starts the Christmas season. How little they know!! THIS starts the season.

    Wood shavings on a Robust, of course!

  8. We always look forward to the annual lighting of the lathe! Merry Christmas season to all the "creeker" family.
    Remember, in a moments time, everything can change!

    Vision - not just seeing what is, but seeing what can be!

    I guess now that it's formal, I can now put up the outside Christmas lights!!!

    I think this equates nicely to wood turning as well . . . . .

    Probably a little snow on the UP to go with the lights? I know the fall was rather warm

    Thanks for that Steve. It's always great to see the lights on the lathe. And the clean carpet on the floor beneath that lathe! I can't imagine having carpet below my lathes............
    Don't let it bring you down,
    It's only castles burning,
    Just find someone who's turning,
    And you will come around

    Nice lights but shop way too clean. Did it take a week to set up?

    Anything on a Robust! (The lights are pretty, but the real beauty is the Robust!)

    I finally figured out how to deal with sawdust in my hair.

    I shaved my head.

    Thanks for the comments everyone! Please feel free to post a photo or 5 of your decorated lathe! Could be the start of a very unique turning tradition!!
