    near perfect round taper

    Yeah, I know; it looks like I am posting in the wrong section. This is exactly what lathes were made for. But I don't have one. I may make a small one or get one of those tiny hobby ones for just this purpose, but for now, I am thinking about how to carve and/or sand to do it. Here's the...

    How to make small, perfectly round circles?

    Hi All! I'm trying to repair some goofs I made when installing euro hinges in some oak cabinet doors. Issue is I need to "plug" the 1 3/8" hole I put in the wrong side. Any ideas on how to cut a perfectly round 1 3/8" "oak plug"? I don't have a scrool saw, but do have a band saw. I thought...

    Playing 'round Again

    Here are some shots of latest play time. The natural edge bowl is turned from ash and is the largest at 11.5 inch diameter and 8" tall at the highest point. The smaller bowl is ash also, 3.5" tall with a diameter of 4.5". These were roughed out while green-about a year ago. Placed in a...

    Round Tuit

    Finally I found the time to finish working on a piece of Cherry Burl cut last fall on my wife's family farm in Maryland. Lots of CA and coffee grounds to hold this one together but the figure in the wood is outstanding.

    Round 2

    Well I thought that it was time to take a 2nd stab at pen making tonight. Tried it with African Blackwood and Cherry. That African Blackwood is some difficult stuff to turn. Think it might be a while before I use that wood again. I am a little happier with the 2nd outcome though and feel...

Throw some ideas my way, I dont want to make...

    true-up a re-glued round tabletop

    I am refinishing a friend's oak table. The glue joints were all failing in the top. I separated the joints and cleaned them up (32nd or so) on the jointer. Reglued them all, but obviously they don't quite fit back the way they were since they are all skinnier. I need to return this table to...

    ShokeShaves....Flat bottom and Round Bottom?

    I recently picked up a near mint Stanley #151 spokeshave with the flat bottom and it does a fine job. Seeing as I'm not too familiar with spokeshaves, I was wondering if there's a spokeshave with a rounded, concave bottom for working on rounded stock such as hickory axe handle or spokes:-D I'd...
