How did the move go Neil?
Delayed....... Now packing up on Saturday and making the 350 kilometer journey. Will post some pics.
So.... Didn't get a lot of shop time today, had to run errands. Did go pick up lumber for a few things. Found two boards in the reject pile I just couldn't leave behind at under 4.00/bf. Really curly maple and a peice of cherry with some wild figure. The Cherry is about 13 inches wide and the maple about 16. No idea what I'm going to do with them but couldn't pass them up.
Then tonight since I don't have a ton of space in the shop to store big boards, got the other stuff I bought broken down into rough pieces for sewing machine bases and a couple other things

Getting reacquainted with Alice this morning..... You forget how to make nice to her when it's been almost a year since I've spent any quality time with her. So far I haven't made any funnels but the day is young.
Ok, I stop now. Hit 3 blanks in a row with major flaws, Almost put one through the window so I'm done turning. Got them sanded out and some WOP on then and I'll buff the ones that survived out tomorrow.
Them are nice, Colin. I especially like that one front and center. And the front left one.
Nicely done, Colin! Some of those look like the silver maple I get around here from time to time.
Oh, and shame on you for neglecting Alice!

Those were from those cores you sent me a long long time ago.
Haven’t had any time to do any fun stuff in so long, been working 6 to 7 days a week. When I have had a day offf I’ve been working on some cabs for the wife. This is what I got so far. Now I’m doing this on the cheap. As a matter of fact I got exactly 18.00 in to what you see here. Lol that includes cab, tops, and tile. Most of the material was pulled off different jobs throughout the last couple years. Still need to paint and build the island, but she’s happy.
Steve what are you using for the "under the cabinet lights"
these are just 14 inch led. We had them under our other ones, so I just used what I all ready had.
I've been getting a lot done but I haven't been taking pics and I know, no pics didn't happen. Got a new to me Husqvarna 445 chainsaw today for $55. Looks new, dude said it leaks bar oil so I did some research and it is prett common on that one. I've watched 1 vid on fixing it and will probably watch a couple more before attempting. The guy said it is a very slow leak so I will have to use it first.
It butchers Mahogany logs pretty well.
No pics, no proof...
Point taken but too dark for pics now.
I was a busy busy beaver today. Got all this done today. Tomorrow I get to do more. I hate turning Red Oak, Especially when they do crazy stuff like leave sections square. But that's what the local guy wanted for some cradle he's building so we'll hope he's happy with them. It does show why having two banjos is really nice so you don't have to keep moving things to go from one end to the other of a spindle though. By Thursday I'll have a metric crap-ton of stuff to apply finish to.
A little something I worked on today...Chinese Tallow. Still need to sand and finish.
I like it a lot Lou, look forward to seeing it done! Tony
You all make me feel bad. Laying around the house last few days with sprained back muscles. The log won.
Like the song says, WOP! there it is!!!
Tomorrow I get to buff everything out and get them all boxed up to ship.
