    Guess this wood?

    I finished this bowl yesterday and thought the wood turned out so well I wanted to have a little fun with it. I thought it would be fun to see how many fellow turners could guess what kind of wood it is. Jack

    I guess I am just PLANE crazy....

    Picked this sweet little Type 18 #3 Stanley up this last week. 100% original, looks like original blade has never been sharpened. Bet this little baby has been sitting in the dark since around 1946 with no use. Now it's time to use it! If my Type 11 #3 and Type 16 #3C don't pout......

    I like to scroll. I got so burned out with that blasted owl that I haven't wanted to scroll since. Add in all the extra hours at work, preparing to move the hospital and I just couldn't convince myself to cut anything. Last night I couldn't sleep, so I finally started cutting simple Christmas...
