    Anybody want Sweetgum logs/blanks? (Durham, NC) $0

    I had a tree taken down that would make nice bowl blanks. The bigger sections would be big enough to make out most lathes. I already have a ton of wood to turn. When I had the tree service leave the wood I was thinking it could be split for firewood, but.... yeah, that's not happening...

    Fixing extreme wear in hardwood floor

    Hello, I wanted to get some ideas/advice on how to address an extremely worn spot in a hardwood floor. This is at my dad's house. The flooring is salvaged heart pine and is probably 100+ years old. It was installed in its current home in 1985 and got super worn out from my dad's office...

    DIY Nova bed extension

    I have the Nova 1624 lathe, which is great except that the bed is quite short. I turn mostly bowls, but the tail rest gets in the way of my long-handled gouges. Nova wants about $200 for their OEM extension, so I figured I would take a stab at a shopmade one. The extension is 12'' long and...

    First try at a natural edge bowl

    My first try at a natural edge bowl. Red maple. The blank had some punky spots on the edges, so it made sense to try it "backwards" instead. The bark didn't want to stay on. Do you use CA glue if you want to keep it? Finish is beeswax in walnut oil.
