What did you do in your shop today?

Here's what my grandson Jameson and I worked on yesterday. This one's his.

He picked out some purpleheart and did some file work on it and I did the flame burning on it. Finished with friction polish.
 
Got out on the driveway and made lots of sawdust today. Projects in progress on the bench. I'll post completed pics with more detail when they're done.

Continued from #9242… this log made 16 primo production blanks, a bunch of smalls from the scrap wedges, a full garbage can of clean wood scraps for the smoker and another can full of uglys.

You know John,

make me jealous being up north in a short sleeve with "green" grass while down here in the mid north, south of you we had a dusting of snow that has been on the ground a week even thought the weather people say it would be gone in 24 hours. Today's rain and near 40 temps took the snow, but it will be back when I'm not ready.
 
I've been cleaning and organizing in my shop the last few days, getting ready to pull the plug on full time retail at the end of this year so trying to get everything set up for a last retail push and make space to store some stuff we won't be using much going forward.....
