    Some big iron for sale by the state

    http://www.ncstatesurplus.com/ssp/public/display_bid.asp?bid=909196&dt=9/19/2006&type=1 If we weren't moving soon, I'd consider bidding on a couple of these. The Tannewitz Bandsaw would be a little hard to move at 1900 punds or so, but it sure would be nice to have in the shop.

    Big Surprise - Here I go again!!!!!!!!!! (I know I suck!)

    Ok, so I got a great deal on the bandsaw. It ended up being an even better deal than I thought when the saw came with a few hundred dollars worth of electronic components that will be sold off. :) Besides that the shop has gotten one more addition. I keep swearing this is it, but I keep...

    Big Bs!

    With all the tools WG has, and his recent BS purchase, I can't believe he didn't take home what I found when nosing around Wall Lumber. Oliver 20" bandsaw! All those other saws are 'girlie' saws compared to this thing! And for the low low price of $2100!

    Question for Big Mike

    Mike, you've got pictures of a deep cherry bowl and a deep goncalo alves bowl. I'm a bit rusty, could you post a few pictures of the tools you're using to hollow with? Particularly, I'm interested in the grind on your bowl gouge, is it steeper for deep bowls? Also, what is your process for...

    We basked in WG's and Big Mike's glory

    We were at the Woodcraft store in Greenville Sat. and pointed out WG's chair and Big Mike's box in the latest Woodcraft magazine. Said we knew folks who were "published". He was impressed with both pieces and wondered where Mike got the wood for his box. Thanks for letting us know famous people!

    My big project for the day!

    Another one for the birds, to complement that birdhouse I made a while back. Again, just an excuse to involve the kids a little.... although now that they already have a birdhouse in their repertoire, the bird feeder seemed to be a bit less interesting... :-? This is based loosely...
