What did you do in your shop today?

[woodtickgreg]

Here's the pricing and a way to order. I've been using Google forms when I sell stuff in the sewing groups. They fill it out, I get an email, send a PayPal invoice, build it, and ship and I can keep it all organized in a spreadsheet that's automatically populated with the info they put on the form.

I worked up the master parts and design for a doodad for the sewing folks. @woodtickgreg will probably appreciate it. Used some 1/2 inch plywood I had laying around for the jigs and master parts but the production pieces will be done in Maple, Cherry, and White Oak. Now hoping to get some orders to justify a bulk lumber purchase.

Looks like an accelerator pedal for a Singer sewing machine to me. Just sayin

The original Singer Bakelite Sewing Machine pedals are uncomfortable to use with the narrow button to push on, these give you a wide surface for more comfort and better speed control.

Dang I was close!

I could a made one but it wouldn't have the cool lazer logo burned into it! That alone is worth the price of admission. Plus I dig having stuff that my friends here have made. Colin's soap dishes have lasted me for years! And I'm still using them.
P.S. money sent.

First turning since my thumb injury. I was crazy cautious and held the tool a bit different to protect my thumb from re-injury.
First project with new hat too!
