More capacity shtf gun, I dont use this one for hunting anymore. I have another 870 that I can use the bird barrel on.
Got some of that nasty old Franklin wood in the mail today!!
That’s a great box!

New ultra quiet (NOT a scroll as I thought) compressor came today. I ordered this a couple months ago before the whole Corona mess started so I was excited it finally shipped. "between 3 pm, and 7 pm" they said. 10 pm the doorbell rings but at least I finally received it. (no pun intended) 2 hp, with 20 gal receiver.

I have the 2HP, 10 gallon version and love mine. It's a purchase I have not regretted. And it's nice to be able to be in the shop while the air compressor is running and not have it screaming at you.
Thank you Matt. It's good to hear a good word from someone who owns one.
What makes it a scroll compressor? I don't know what that distinction means.
It doesn't use pistons, it uses... like two worms or opposing threads mating. They are a lot less noisy. This one is rated at 70 db which is about as noisy as a vacuum cleaner.

Cant wait to hear your review of it.
My first set of parallel clamps! (and a free set of brad point bits) Already put them to use and see that I need more. Taylor Tools Clamps
I really enjoyed making rings but haven’t for awhile,mostly because I’ve been trying different things and making pens,and partly because I was getting frustrated with not getting it very precise. I also have the problem of tapering the hole.NOT ANYMORE!!! Got this from craft supplies yesterday. Will hopefully be trying it out this wknd. Just Incase anyone is wondering what it is,a ring boring head and cutters.
I'm not familiar with making a ring. Can you show us some in-process photos of how this new set of cutters work?
I will,hopefully I will have time this wknd.

That's a boring g head for a mill, you must be making really big rings, not the on your finger type?
Nope on your finger type.
oooops,it’s not the video
Yep, sure did notice that, I did, I did. Now are you going to post the real thing? You have whetted our appetite.
Wood day today!
Some O'cacia, and Sissoo Rosewood from over seas
Two beautiful walnut platter blanks
And though not "in the mail" picked up some Cedar Elm from a fellow wood turner (two samples of 8 logs)
