    Another bowl.. Christmas came a little early for me!

    Here is my latest, I usually keep the new bowls I turn for at least a month to make sure that there are no issues with movement of the wood. I was hurried a little with this one though, The owner of the Barton Hill hotel emailed me with news that one of the bowls I had on display sold for...

    A Christmas Gift For Mom

    I spent a little time in the shop today making a gift for my mother for Christmas. She has a difficult time reading the paper without some magnifying help, so when I was at Woodcraft in Charlotte a couple of months ago I purchased a magnifying glass kit. The wood used for the handle is a piece...

    First Christmas Ornament

    Our club is doing ornaments next month so I thought I'd try to make a few. I don't do spindle work much, but still managed to come up with this for my first try. It is holly with the top and bottom spindle being turned from plum. Jack

    Have you looked at our classifieds lately? Looks like some dreamy choices for someone's Christmas list. I wish I had the coin (and the space) right now. I'd point the family at quite a few of those items! :icon_thum

    PO Box Door Banks for Christmas!

    After having seen Stuart's banks, I decided to get on the band wagon and make some post office box door banks as Christmas presents for my daughter and nieces. 5 in all. I found a plan online, and then got busy. Each bank has a working (ie locking!) door. I burned the combinations for a...

    Christmas ornament patterns?

    My kids have been asked to donate ornaments for some charity. They want me to make some simple scroll cutouts like bells and little trees or whatever. Not something I want to spend a lot of time on, so is there any place to find patterns already to print and cut? For free since we have to...

    Late Christmas present

    The Big Brown Truck ( no Dale wasn't driving ) came by yesterday and delivered a late Christmas present. L-N came out with these inlay tools in Dec. and I ordered these two a straight cutter and a radius cutter. It was worth the wait as they live up to L-Ns usual standards. Can't wait to start a...
