Good Day to the Turners of the Creek.

Since Feb. I have been consumed with finishing our basement and building a media/theater room in it. All thats left to do now is the carpet which should get done in the next couple of weeks.
With that pretty much out of the way I did get time to clean up my shop and spend an hour at my lathe.
Nothing real special. But it was shop time.....

Sorry about the pics but my wife is away this weekend with the camera and all I have is my iphone...

Hope everyone had some good shop time this weekend.

Gary, I know you have to be glad that project is behind you! I know you have been slaving away at it, and it was worth it.

You made good use of your shop time! Beautiful bowl, and great finish! I love curly maple, anyway, and this one shows it nicely. Well done!

Glad to hear you got some shop time in... Nice looking bowl.

You take better pics with your phone than I do with a camera.

Gary - glad to hear someone is getting shop time! We had spring planting to do in the flower gardens today. Loads of fun but not the same as spending some time in the shop!

Hope you are able to start posting more of your work real soon - unless you are actually do the carpet install!!!

Thanks for all the comments guys.
Steve. No carpet install for me. We will get the pros to do that.
But I am taking the carpet off the stairs going into the basement.
Downside of that is who ever put it in used a million staples......
