Some of you may remember that I sent a little hollowform to John Hart recently as a gift:). Yesterday afternoon, I received an unbelievably generous parcel of wood from Mr. Hart in return:D. My smiling muscles are actually sore today!:D I've always known woodturners to be a kind and generous group, but this is way above and beyond the norm. I'll be paying this forward for quite some time. John, I love you man!:D:D:D:D:D:D

I also received my steady rest from Jeff Nicol this week along with some beautiful spalted maple extras. The craftsmanship is first rate, and I'm looking forward to getting it dirty. Thank you Jeff:D.

To continue the gloat, I also received a beautiful walnut bowl blank from John Keeton. Thank you JK:D.

Thank you to my fellow creekers for making this week a wonderful one.

Its good to see people being good to one another. It restores my faith in humanity.

Yep you definetly are in u suck territory. Hart must be a cheap date, one hf and you get that stack. Sheesh! What do I have layin around?

That Nicol steady looks great. Jeff does nice work for sure. Now get turning some of that wood he sent you. Nice touch!

Did JK send you some Claro? Or is he hording that for himself? Looks like a nice blank.

Congrats on the multi score day.

I don't think it's claro, but it's pretty wood for sure.

That stuff is pure ol' KY black walnut. I have the Claro under lock and key!:D;)

It should turn well, though - and seems to have a nice color to it.

David,
Just in case you didnt go out and buy a powerball ticket to see how long your run of luck was, I did.:cool:
You're right about the people on this board..... just awesome. And you probably deserve some payback from the ol karma pool.
May all those blanks be masterpieces!

Congrats, congrats, congrats. It looks like you have a lot of fun ahead, but I don't see anything there to use the steady rest on. You will like it. I used mine yesterday and it makes a big difference. I also like your swing-a-way or whatever.
