Well......
As you will recall, I had a Grizz G1023RLW on (back)order. I just couldn't wait and after looking at all the spec sheets and reviews here on NCWW, I decided to switch to the (in-stock) G0690. And I picked it up at UPS yesterday. Sorry, no pics yet (the Spring cleaning is still not...
Sunday mornings are my weigh in day. This morning the scale showed a 2 lb loss from last week which puts me at a 60 lb loss total! It is just about at the halfway mark and 11 lbs away from the lowest I weighed when I dropped the weight 3 years ago. I like lots of folks put on more then I lost...
It's been a while since I made an update, but I have made progress. I got the basics of the lathe handed through Carved Tones. I thin I was at least the 4th owner of this thing. I cleaned up the joints and stabilized some things, but wanted something a bit more modern for the spindle. I...

But I think it is crazy what they want to charge for it. Of course she turns to me and says "Can't you make that" Why of...
There's an item in South Hill, VA that I am buying. I need someone to pick it up for me if possible and help out with getting moved in the direction of little Washington, NC? South Hill, VA is on I85 and about 8 miles from the VA/NC border.
Even getting it to Raleigh, Rocky Mount, Wilson, etc...

Hello all,
As unbelievable as it sounds, it looks like no NCWW'er has decided to build a harpsichord.:gar-La;
Being a glutton for punishment, I thought I'd try again - this time with a somewhat less ambitious project. Here it is,
This is a music box that is an exact replica of a full sized...
As of 2:30 today, 04/25, we have 90 people registered to attend the picnic. I plan on making additional plugs over the next few weeks. I am still thinking we will end up around 150 +/-.
Hey guys. I haven't posted in a long time. We moved from our apartment in Charlotte and got a house in Indian Trail. I upgraded from a 200 sqf workshop to a 700 sqf one. Just built a 4'x8' torsion box work bench to build my RC planes on. Going to top it with a 4'x8' 1/16" steel plate. I'm also...
:wsmile: It is time for our annual Spring Raffle! :wsmile:
The North Carolina Woodworker, Inc. is a non-profit corporation, so each year we must raise funds to support our website, our workshops, our booths at woodworking events and other member educational activities. While we rely and...
Last week I started on my Garage Loft. I based it on the Wasted Spaces show that I had seen a while back. I don't a picture of the "Cleaned out" garage (I never really got it completely cleaned out :gar-La; but I found a picture of the garage while in the construction stage:

Below is the floor plan for the Charlotte WW Show. NCWW is at booth 317. We are right across from the Lee Valley booth. I can't think of a worse place to put a bunch of tool junkies:rotflm:
I do know that The Hardwood Store and Klingspor will both be at the show as well. Come out and...
I am down 32 lbs today.
I starting a little over 8 weeks ago (1/17). This is a pretty high rate of loss and it should slow down some I think. I am not going below 1600 calories a day and I am on the treadmill once a day for about 50 minutes at a fast walk. I weigh in on Sunday mornings. It is...
I have set up an admin account with the cc processor for our Admins to get the page working properly. Bas is working on it now. After that is done I will get with Joe to set payment options to make sure he has full access to the account. We should be live in a day or two. Bas has some...
