    Weekend doings....

    Even with the great weather we had in Northern VA this weekend I still found time to do little bit in the shop. Got some stain and shellac on the torsion box shelves for the library and a new table made for my home built band saw.

    Thanks Jim,

    I have this evening to myself , the wife is off to pottery class, so I should be able to get a couple coats of shellac on the shelves.

    Hey Greg, nice job on the above, but how about some detailed shots of that homebuilt BS?! Hmmmm...I'm in need of a bigger lathe. You do those, too?

    I had good weekend with lots of shop time, too.

    started cutting the dovetails for a tool cabinet case and then began work on a corner cabinet I am making for a friend at work. Got the top and panels glued up and and the parts for the case dimensioned.

    Very Nice Eric,

    John thanks and as a matter of fact I did build my own lathe. Check out my shop tour on my website http://gwandless.home.att.net. I have had a few people ask about my BS so maybe I'll take some pics tonight and add them to the website, I'll let you know when they are there.

    Cheers,
    Greg

    Don't do that. It will upset the creative energy flow.
