    Talking Tis the Season … 2011

    Another eventful year is winding down and the Holiday Season is rapidly approaching! While we all share the love of woodturning, it is understood that we are a diverse group and have many different ways of celebrating at this time of year. I am extremely thankful for many things but especially for my loving family and all my friends here on the Creek!

    I have a tradition, over the last few years, of decorating my lathe. I figure if it brings one smile to someone’s face – it was worth the effort!

    So, in keeping with the spirit of this newly arrived Holiday Season ……. from my shop to yours …..

    Have a wonderful - and safe - Holiday Season!
    Steve

    Happy holidays to you and yours! With the black lathe, it looks a little different than previous years.

    Steve, I will have to admit - the black background certainly adds an element of class to your display. Just think what a bit of holly and spruce would do to really put the finishing touches on it!!

    Hope you have a great one!!

    Happy Holidays to everyone. I agree with Bill and think that your lights might create a bit of excitement if you try and turn anything with them on the lathe.
    Turn safe everyone,
    Jack

    Happy Holidays to you and your family Steve! I see you have finally figured out a way to draw some attention away from the fruit stripe super swank shag. Yes you brought a smile to my face, so mission accomplished my friend!

    Steve,

    You did it again. Nothing like a 700lb. Christmas tree.
