Have you ever......

[Dick Wilson]

had one of those weeks that you do not have much to show for your effort. It is Friday evening and I will be darn, but it doesn't seem like I have accomplished a dad gum thing in my shop ALL week. Would someone tell me what the heck I have been doing all week:confused::confused::confused:

Practising for next week

A bad week in the shop beats a good week at work, or something like that!

[David E Keller]

I haven't been in my shop all week! I'd rather be out there not getting anything done that not be there at all...

The only thing I have managed to do in my shop is get my Monster rig set up, and last night, after 9:30 pm I was out there changing the bandsaw blade on my Jet 18" saw. I had a 1-1/4" blade on it, and I got a 1/2" blade for it, to make it easier to cut blanks out of logs..........I cut one blank from a black walnut log, and man was it sweet! I was hoping to get to a turning today, but just too many demands on my time..............that is alright, because next week it is supposed to warm a good bit, and if all goes well, that Monster Articulated Rig is going to get a workout!

I did purchase some Zinzer Seal Coat [100% dewaxed shellac] today, so I can "pop" the grain before I finish it off with WOP, once it is turned [learned that one from Charles Neil, and I have some Abralon pads from 80 grit to 4000 grit on the way...again Charles Neil suggestion] Oh boy, I can't hardly wait........I hope my concept works well......black walnut HF, with clear Ash pedestal and finial with a black walnut replication on the finial. I am hoping I can pull this one off........prayers would be appreciated!:D

Dick didn't get much done here either. Of course when it was snowing Monday and Tuesday with a wind chill of -48 I didn't even leave the house. Just worked on my business books getting ready for taxes. Wednesday went out and cleared the drifts in front and back. Yesterday I finished a couple of woodburning projects then today put the finish on. Of course that was after we got back from coffee with some friends. Yep didn't accomplish much either.

[Dick Wilson]

I have knocked on wood for ya

[David Warkentin]

I got a lot done this week, only it wasn't in the shop....

[Matt Hutchinson]

Hey Dick!

I had the same problem this week. It must be something in the water around here. :D
