    Titebond Dark glue

    I bought some Titebond Dark glue yesterday to use on a segmented bowl with walnut. It looks like maple syrup. I figured it was Titebond so it would probably work OK. Anybody ever use this stuff?

    Woodworking in the Dark

    I promised a number of you I'd let you know about the next demontration by blind woodworkers Bob Kennedy & Glenn Permar. They will be demonstrating pen turning at Woodcraft in Raleigh on Saturday, Jan. 14 @ 1:00pm. They are both accomplished woodworkers and turners. It's very inspirational to...

    Further descent into the dark side

    After only having my lathe for 2 weeks, I have made 3 rosewood pencils, 3 rosewood pens, a bocote pen, and I have an ebony pen in process (man, that is some hard wood, but it is what my daughter asked for). I may have gotten myself into trouble. I spoke to the head deacon at my church and asked...

    Looking for dark wood offcuts for segmented turning

    Hi, I am going to be doing some segmented turning and wanted to know if anyone might have any dark wood rip off cuts. I can use anything from 3/4" inch wide and any lengths. I have a light looking red oak (thank you Max_in_Graham) and am looking for something to contrast it with. I am in...

    Anybody want to help me slide down the slippery slope? I just bought Mike L 's HF lathe and was wondering if anybody is coming this way. Mike L lives in SE Raleigh near DaveO and I live right in the center of Charlotte. Will pay for gas, lunch, and a free shop tour:gar-Bi. Thanks for looking

    Another great day for the Dark Side...

    My day started out with a little flat joy as my parents got to see their custom stereo cabinet in person, but then turned into a full blown dark side fest. MRAudio815 (Mathew) and Erassmusen (Earl) came by around lunch to relieve me of my HF lathe. Earl brought another one of his spectacular...

    Have I sucked the Magic from the Dark side?

    I hope I haven't sucked the magic from the Dark Side by introducing a). CAD drawings and Concept drawings and b). Flat wood joinery! Here it is anyway. I call it "The Wedding Bowl" The union of my Nephew Christopher to Holly. The White wood is Holly, the red wood is "Blood wood" A tricky...

    The dark side, the sweet side

    I just finished watching Alan Lacer's skew video "The dark side, The sweet side" This man is truly a magician with a skew. Picked up some helpful tips to try tomorrow in the shop. I will probably watch this video many, many times. Well worth purchasing.

    First Xmas presents from the dark side

    Some friends gave me some pieces of Iron wood they had cut down and abandoned in the woods. I had no idea it would look this good until I cut into it! I made them this pestle and morter as a xmas gift in exchange. Some of it was just a little "furry" to sand perfectly, but a coat of CA soon...

    The Dark Side Weakens

    A Hard Wood to Work About a month ago I stumbled onto some very deeply discounted, solid wood flooring. Cumaru (Brazilian Teak). Being a dedicated turner, I almost passed it up, but what the heck, solid wood, not a laminate, there had to be something I could do with it, right? Now I deeply...

    I'm headed for the dark side

    I haven't turned anything in the past 2-3 years and decided to turn a piece of crab apple wood. I've never done a lot of turning even after having spent a fair amount of money (you all know how that is) on the lathe, gouges, chucks, and other turning tools, etc., etc., etc. Well, it's blatantly...

    The Dark Side was strong in Richmond this weekend

    The AAW symposium in Richmond was great. My son and I had fun seeing all the presentations. He got to participate in the Youth Turning and had 2 classes with Bonnie Klein and 1 with Joe Ruminski. All the kids that participated in the program got their names in a hat for the 25 lathes and tools...

    The influence of the Dark Side.....

    It forced me to turn this 12/4 hunk of air dried Walnut into something with a bowl like shape - I was really happy with it until I realized that my macro level pics showed off all the torn end grain, and the wax I applied just enhanced that. But none the less it is the biggest bowl...

    The power of the dark side, It's Dark In Salisbury

    Well I went to Harbor Freight this weekend to get a set of the digital fractional calipers. Every time I walked by the bigger wood working tools I felt a strange force pulling me ever so much closer. I finally realized that I was there two days before the sale on their lathe was to end. I...

    Rumor of the Dark Side

    Those of you that remember that I got the Goodwill lathe, will also remember that I am trying to invade the inner sanctums of the "Dark Side". Today I was in the lair of "he whos name we must not mention", this member of the " Dark Side" is a high ranking official. He showed me around this...

    The dark side

    I have been trying to think of ways to incorporate acrylics into my pens. I have had this idea for a while and made the first pour last week. Black poly- resin and aluminum. I realize there are faults in fit and finish, This is just a proto-type.I would not put this much effort into a twist but...
