Got my hats too! What's up with the purple bag? Lol
I think you've beaten me to more than a couple wood deals over the years so I'm calling it even, though I reserve the right to taunt you with the hat in several future postings...Love your gouges and draw knives. ---- ohhh ---- there is a hat involved! They type I wanted - but I won't be carrying a grudge or anything!
I was intent on the blue ripstop but they were all claimed by the time I logged in.

They were cheaper than the white ones by $5!
Ok, now I know what was meant by the purple bag!!! I did get some rather odd stares walking down the hall with my purple bag. A purple bag at a construction office!!! EGADS! What is the world coming too?
But that hat shore does make me look rather good. Wish I had it back in young Lil Mikey's days - maybe them gurls woulda took notice! Probably not!

Ok, have I ever told y'all that I like lacy things? Well, I do - and don't you go looking down your nose at me - you know you like lacy things too, especially when they look this purdy! Got em in the mail today.

That's very cool! I need to get a coring system of some kind.
Got a surprise today. A while back I sent Barry @Wildthings some extra urchin shells so he could play around with casting them.
Mail lady showed up today with a box from Barry with some of the results of his efforts.
Original shells on the left, then three forms he made from them and some of the results of his efforts. Some really cool looking castings, that I've already got ideas for projects with them.
This will also probably open a new rabbit hole for me as I'm going to have to try casting some since I now have forms.
Thanks Barry, some really cool stuff you've created.

Ordered from Germany even with shipping cheaper than the 2 blade option on amazon.
I’m on limited internet access until I’m back at home Saturday. We’ll talk

A package from woodturninz arrived today!!!
Fordite, yeah!
I’ve wanted a piece of this for awhile,very expensive=very careful!!
Expensive indeed! Having worked several of these, Troy, my suggestion is not to use lathe tools. The Fordite will chip and delaminate. CA might be of help, but I found sanding them to shape the best method. I began with a stationary belt sander before putting the blank on the lathe to do final shaping and sizing with sandpaper.
