Decided to start drinking again so I made a wine goblet.

I guess I need to work on getting my miniatures smaller, they're not near as small as yours.

Looks like a hell of a diet plan David! Tony
Did some fun projects today, found a boxelder that fell down in a recent storm, some nice color.
Looks like it bleeding. Very cool!
As you all know I haven't been able to do much shop time but I promised a pen for a charity raffle that is this coming Friday. Managed to drill and glue up the blank last night and spent an hour turning and finishing the blank today. Came out pretty nice. CUSA Click Bullet with an elm burl blank from @DKMD.
without pictures it didn't happen. lol, i think that's how i heard it told
lol just added a preview pictures, working on them nowSays the guy who posted an olive thread with no pictures...
I'm diabetic, so that is about as much ice cream as I dare eat
Here we go. Goblet, bowl and plate sitting on a nickle. It wasn't easy but it was fun!
@Lou Currier, Glad to hear your able to at least get out a little. Hope you get better soon!!!
And I did cut a couple:
Sitting on its side at the moment. I need to install levelers on the bottom and cut/assemble the drawers. There will be 2 6" drawers, 8 3" drawers, and 8 1 1/2" drawers. the dados are all 1 1/2" apart so the drawers can be arranged in whatever order is needed.
It will, of course, also get a back and there's a lip that goes across the bottom front to close up that gap under the bottom drawer. I have T-track around the top and there will be extensions built in for the miter slots. I'll be moving my router table from the table saw side to the open end of this outfeed/assembly table as well.
I did get lucky in one respect - since I didn't have the dado stack on hand I drilled all the pocket hole screw holes first. After seeing this I suspect I got much better results than if I had cut the dados first. Not something that would necessarily have occurred to me.
I will say that the Freud stack worked very well. Well, aside from the slight delay I had when I had to add another shim and dropped one of the chipper blades down into the sawdust inside the saw. Luckily a little air, a little dust collector action, and a magnet on the end of an extendable stick were enough for me to fish it back up through the top without having to open the side of the saw :) Very crisp, clean, flat bottomed grooves.
