    It sounds like you're off to a great start. It's time to start spinning some timber.

    I second the Thompson gouges and Wolverine system. You'll love them once you work out the grind you want. One...

    Hey Reed. Good to see your name. Some people on other forums are looking for you. I think they want to buy your sharpening jigs. I sent one to this forum to try to contact you a few months ago. ...

    Yes I have the GO698. There is a girl in the local turning club who is doing mostly spindle turning on the club lathes, but doesn't have a lathe of her own. She's been coming by a few times a month...

    Just checking in

    I haven't been active in turning or on this forum in years. Funny how I'm looking for names I know instead of the subject of each post. I sold most of my rentals and retired for good, but it seems...

    I'm on a tractor group and saw a post "How can I push over a row of 20', 15" diameter Holly trees." The guy is south of Olympia Washington and just posted them on Craigslist if anyone is interested....

    If the branches are grouped at the same level all around the tree, like a Norfolk Pine, you can get some interesting patterns from the knots. Also what John said.

    I would worry that the poly would form a film and the finish under the film would dry very slowly or not at all. But I like to worry. Why not try on a piece of scrap wood and then slice it up and...

    Thanks for the reply, Don. I was growing mold on a couple batches, which is what led me to buy the humidistat. I just haven't gotten around to hooking things up. Life intervened.

    I've had a lot of trouble with light bulbs burning out and the blanks freezing in my unheated shop, mainly because I don't get out there every day to check. I have plans to substitute a dishwasher...

    I saw a video on using the HF sharpener to do the rakers in a Google search, but didn't take the time to watch it. I don't file them every time; just when it seems like I need more bite. I'll look...

    I've been using the HF for years. It is a little sloppy and I think it may take a little more steel than necessary because of it, shortening the life of the chain. I still have to file the rakers...

    Nice work. I would have worried about that bark inclusion almost all the way to the rim, but it looks like you pulled it off. Beautiful wood and finish and I also like the curve.

    This is the other half of the pear stump. I got the wall too thin, right in the middle, and it's already starting to warp in an unattractive way, flattening out the curve. The vertical rim looks to...

    That has me worried, too. I'm looking for a paper bag and thinking about fixing the door on my refrigerator kiln, in the hope I can slow down the drying. Thanks everyone for the nice comments.
