Pretty piece, John.
1/8" must have been a little hairy to turn.
Nicely done.
Cool piece, John. I really like the spikes on the edge.
Thanks for sharing.
Man! That is some chainsaw!
I see a nice bowl coming from that crotch piece.
Can't wait to see the end result, John.
Hey, John. Great to see you back again. I've always enjoyed your posts. A real treat. The Creek is my favorite place too. Sorry to hear about your challenges. I get it, though. Looking forward...
Wow! That is some spectacular figure in that purple heart!
I think the shape and finish is excellent.
Well done!
Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant!
What is your process for getting a nice finish on the inside (side-grain)?
Almost forgot. It is a nice piece with beautiful form.
I do look forward to when you do post new videos. I realize the amount of time it takes to produce a quality video must be very "time consuming". You are one of my favorite craftsmen top watch and...
Brilliant!
+3 on seeing more of your repurposing ideas.
Thanks for sharing:).
Really can't add anything to what has already been said other than to say that I think the soft finish is a perfect compliment.
I'd love to have these on display!
I think you've hit the nail on the head!:)
That's really slick, Glenn.
Nice little project, nicely done! Thanks for sharing.
That looks really slick, Mike!
Kinda too nice to use:). Well done, Sir.
Hi Steve,
I'm curious to know what your process is for flattening the soles and sides?:)
Hey John,
I really like the "spalting " that's going on. Very attractive.
What's going on with the rim? Is that a natural edge? Whatever it is, I like it!:)
I like that, Allen. Very unique. Thanks for sharing:).
Hey Ken,
I had to laugh out loud when I read your thread title:D.
I need all the help I can get and look forward to sharpening threads.
Thanks for posting this!
I bet it feels good to get a little turning done and it sure doesn't look like you've lost your touch:).
I agree! Very pretty and interesting wood. Pictures turned out well too.
Hey, Steve,
I see what looks like black staining. Since you found the tree dead, could that be spalting? I'm not familiar with sugar maple.
Well, it sure does look like you've kept your turning skills up, John.
Wow! What a great surprise! So glad to hear from you again. Truly have missed you, my friend.
I really enjoy seeing these "restoring/rehabbing" threads.
Thanks for taking the time to share:).
Wow! That plane looks like it just came from an unopened box!
I really enjoy seeing these old tools restored. I know they are just tools, but there is a certain beauty to restored hand tools....
