    Little trip

    Michiko is much better, and one of her friends come and spent the day with her.
    So I had a chance to make a little trip, and got me a bit of wood

    Now maybe I'll have enough to make a few bowls, and a tv stand/cabinet for her

    Nice haul Earl, where did you get it all from and what beautiful items are you going to make with it???

    :-D Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile :-D

    Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

    I got it from steve walls, he had some holly there today at $8 bf, I didnt get any of the holly, but wishing i had got a piece of it now
    One thing Michiko wants something like this, and after that some other different projects, some bowls I hope also

    Re: Little trip

    Good to hear Michiko is doing well!!!!! And even better that she wants something that is beautiful and SQUARE! Those bowls are going to have to wait...snicker....

    Nice wood haul BTW. Even though wood rocks, I have to say you SUCK on this one. That'll make a good stash....

    Ah yes, a trip to the real 'Wally World' is a joy indeed. Great haul! And we're all glad to her that your wife is recovering well!

    I see more segmented bowls coming from all that Purpleheart!

    Earl, good to hear Michiko is well on her way to being well.

    That wood ROCKS!
    The thing that holds up all my woodworking is simply getting started.

    Earl,

    I hope you realize what you're trying to do here.



    Woodworking will teach you both patience and how to overcome adversity. The more patient you are, the less adversity you will have to overcome.
