Ain't that a pit.:( Course you could fill it with stuff and keep on goin'.;)


...Naw....I take that back. You're probably thin all the way around. Nice lookin wood too! That's a shame.

Sorry about that.

Did you burn the edges of that platter to get that effect?

I know how that feels. You had some nice wood there and a nice platter form going too.

Chris that is a bummer on a nice looking piece of wood. All I can say is been there, Done that more times than I care to admit.

That's a real beauty Chris. Why not do a little creative piercing along the wall?

What? How could you run out of wood when you still had some edge left on the tool?? Sheesh!!! :o

Seriously, sorry to see that it didn't work out, Chris. Some days are like that...

Aw, man.....................that is just downright the pits ! Been there done that, more than once. Don't pitch it, set it on a shelf and at some point in the future you will think of a fix and you will be amazed with youself.

That is so irritating when that happens... is there anyway you could just cut it down to make a much smaller platter... that is such beautiful would it would be sad to throw!

Chris, that really sucks. But when I look at what's in the background, I see many, many more opportunities! It must be nice being organized. I wouldn't know....

I'm with Travis on this one......it looks like it would fit in a scrollsaw for some cool internal cuts!
