They're already in the shape of Colorado or Wyoming....
Finished up the clock and the cutting boards.
Working to complete some other projects while the glue sets on those boards.
A small/medium sized bowl from spalted hackberry (or is it ash, I can't remember) and a small potpourri bowl. Neither have a finish on them yet. The spalted whatever is from the yard, the ambrosia maple I got from David, @gvwp, a long while ago.
A couple of French style rolling pins from a piece of curly maple.

Them female girlie types gots ways. The one that stays around here has this thing for antique marble books -AND- she thinks it is sweet of me to make them for her. She ...there goes the tornado warning sirens- danged! She brought some real hard wood home and asked real sweet like. Got two done before the front hit. Still don’t know what kind of wood it is. I think it’s gots lots of silica in it.

I picked up my 22' extension ladder, then went to my stepsons house & we took the hurricane shutters down on the second floor. They decided to leave the 2nd floor shutters up till hurricane season over.
Notice how my ladder has a proper RED flag attached as required by law!!

I hope those are not yours!
Well, that was unpleasant.
Trying to slice a segmented ring thinner on the bandsaw. Blade grabbed the ring, ripped it out of my hand, and exploded it. Lost a bit of skin off 3 finger tips.
Luckily I didn't contact the blade but I do believe I'm done for the day.
Hope all of yours went better.

I just slammed a couple fingers when a tool rest broke, I still have 300+ tubes to turn, I'll probably be walking away from my building in 12 days or so and my wife's car is running like crap....
risky business sawing anything round on a bandsaw
I went to the shop this morning turned the heat on and returned to the house for coffee while things warmed up. Came back with my coffee turned the radio on sat down in my shop chair and surveyed the disarray. Finished my coffee turned the radio and heat off and went hunting. No deer shop is still a mess.

Best way to make segmented rings thinner is with a drum sander.

Ain't no pain like back pain. If you don't give it time to heal it never gets better.
Damn dude....where's the dislike button!
Wth! You just got over the last sore back!!
What is going on here......you guys are falling apart.
I wish I could help somehow,
