Yes I’m actually adding another post only a month after my last one. New record! Been spending a little bit of time in the shop working on odds and ends. Getting caught up on miscellaneous stuff so i can get back into the blanket chests full tilt. Even spent a day cleaning off the work bench, yes there was a bench underneath all that saw dust , scrape wood, and scrape paper with notes and measurements that i have no idea from what project. Would like to finish up the jelly cupboard soon, as i’m sure it will look a lot nicer in the kitchen than the old computer desk that’s currently there. It’s coming along slow but sure.
And I’ve really been trying to learn this woodturning lathe thing. I know these small pieces probably won’t win any design awards, but their purpose was to practice technique, mainly on hollowing and fitting a lid. Overall I was pleased with how they turned out. Now I need to work on getting my sidewalls a little thinner than 1/2″ without fear of blowing out the side and launching a gouge up into the ceiling.
Well I did it, I actually entered two post in two months! Guess I better shut er down for now before I become exhausted. Need to conserve my energy so that I’m able to do some work on a project and post again next month.
