I'm not sure if I got this cocobolo from Packard or The Wood turners Catalog, but I ordered some 24" x 1 1/2 "x 1 1/2" from one of them when they had it on special. I use cocobolo for most of my crow calls and I'm extremely impressed with the quality and color of this cocobolo. Here is a picture...
Yup, I made it in plenty of time. I got ticket #3 of 12 at the Sandy Springs, GA Rockler and when the doors opened at 7:00, this became mine:
More later (probably late tomorrow or Sunday) as I am still visiting. "Papa Louis" and I just managed to sneak out for a few minutes to try it out on...
It was time to change the bandage today so I took a couple of pictures. The TS really did a job on the thumb. It is still very tender but there is no lingering pain as long as you don't touch it. The pins come out on Dec. 4 and that can't get here soon enough. I still have feeling everywhere...
One little request ... we get unlimited picture storage at NCWW (a GREAT service), but my PM's are limited to 200 :cry_smile
Any chance the PM storage could me unlimited? They are like old emails to me and I hate when "delete day" becomes a reality and I have to part with so many old friends...
Here is a night stand I finished today and delivered to a happy client. This is a combo of Walnut burl veneer and Mahogany. One of the few times I have mixed woods on a piece. I think it turned out pretty good.

Ok I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 10, the first person to guess the number gets this ERC pen blank, I'll mail it to you. I ran across it today milling 1x8's to make pillars for my pool deck. It's to pretty to become a pillar board. What the grain pattern is called I don't know, but...

Saw a commercial yesterday regarding a new printer-like carver from Sears. It's a pretty neat looking gizmo ... and it got me thinking, does anyone on NCWW own it? 8-O
It's a bit out of my price range currently, but would be very cool if you could get enough use out of it...
