    Last couple of weeks project

    I've been working on this off and on the last 2.5 wks or so and got the "woodworking" portion of it done last week. LOML was finally able to get some time to sit down with it and do her thing. As usual she did all the burning and I helped out with the "simple", i.e straight staining, while she...

    New to carving. Three questions, plzzzz

    In this picture, am I correct when I say that this type of carving is called "Raised relief"? 2- Is this type of detail, in general, the result of having a rather extensive selection of carving tools, or is it done with a few "basic" tools? 3- What wood would be a good medium to...

    A couple of new pens

    I recently made 2 pens out of some scrap wood. Both are finished to a 12,000 grit and I wanted to see how using paste wax as a top coat would do. I think the wax turned out ok, I applied 3 coats of wax while they were still on the lathe and just buffed it with a cotton rag. Mahogany...

    A couple photos of my latest piece

    This is my first real shot at woodburning other than a couple little cherries on an older piece. I wanted just the right wood for this and man, did I luck out! All the waves and background are all natural maple wood. Only the 2 colored rings and the wood burning itself were done by me. It's 15"...

    A couple recent turnings

    I had a mulberry die at the edge of my yard last year so I cut it 3 weeks ago. I took a couple pieces in to school for my students to turn and decided to turn a bowl from it to. It is 8" across the long side of the bowl. The bark was already falling off so I didn't try and leave any. I just...

    A couple more Stoppers

    I did manage to get a little shop time in between all the massive amount of yard work and cleanup this weekend, Plus having to go help FIL plant some cabbage and taters, but used that as excuse to take a swing by The Hardwood Store and go through their shorts bin. Here's what came out, the left...

    A couple of flawed turkey calls.

    Here are a couple pots that had a flaw in the wood, so I didn't sell them. The pot on the left is dogwood and it had a crack at the rim that I had to fill to save it. The crack was caused by what apears to be a 22 bullet that I didn't know to be in the wood until I mounted the blank and turned...

    Couple equipment upgrade pics

    I have not had much shop time recently, and that is fairly typical for me in the winter, as I enjoy working in the shop more in the warmer months. I did do some shopping recently to get ready for those spring projects and picked up this: View image in gallery Makita Sliding Compund Miter...

    Let me start by saying that I have been on vacation this week (Carry over days from last year) and I feel I need another vacation already, just to recover from the traveling I've done in the last 4 days!

    Couple of my Xmas gifts.

    I was in Atlanta last month working a show at woodworking store. Of course I had to mosey around and see what I needed/wanted. They had a new old stock Record compass plane. I have a modest collection of the Record planes and always wanted one but was cost prohibitive. The unit had been banging...

    Looking for a couple of rendering textures

    If anyone's got textures/graphics for jatoba and curly maple, for just about any 3D modeling software / graphic format, could I get a copy of them? Easiest would be PNG or JPG files, as I don't need any sort of reflection or bump map for these. I know several of you are using real design...

    New guy with a couple questions:

    I have been here from time to time lurking around and am nowhere near the skill or investment as most of you guys, but appreciate all the inspiration and techniques I am able to pick up. I am considering a project and thought I should ask the more knowledgeable before I make an expensive and...
