Great, something new I don't have......
Wanna buy one for me when you buy one for you?
Sure buddy, just wait by the mailbox, it will be there any day now!

Ah, the advantages of having a PO box include not having to wait outside in cold and rainy weather!
Where’s the pictures of the inside and bottom?
No pics of it inside. I already sealed it up. And Michele wrote something sentimental on the bottom...so that stays with us....
I may have to look for some process pics to see if I took any of the inside...
Actually it's just setting on a 60° live center so I could match up the lid....
Finish turning another ambrosia maple bowl that was roughed out 18 months ago.
Couple more yet to finish.

I have a few bowls I need to finish too if I ever get any shop time. One is a really cool ambrosia maple.
I get that. It’s taken me a year and a half to get back to these.

Work sucks for me sometimes.
Yeah, I can’t use work as an excuse any longer. When you hear folks in retirement say “How did I ever have time to work” believe them.
Got a notice the building I am in was sold. Have 45 days to move the shop out of here. Arghhh. Truthfully this probably was the first shop set up that I was 90%+ happy with how everything worked and I was feeling and getting super productive. Fortunately I have a place to go, but the pain of it all!!!
I have found that it is totally over rated myself.
Good luck with the move Neil, I hope the weather works for you too.
That's a nice big bowl Tom! Are those chunks below the lathe in the queue for turning? Or just ballast...
At least it's an opportunity to purge, was for me anyhow
I've been using them as ballast for the last several years, Barry. Its about time for them to get rotated out though, get some different weights on the machine. Since they've dried they aren't as effective as they used to be.
Those might be interesting packed in a mold and poured Ken!
