    FreeStuff Winner - Spalted Maple Turning Blank

    Bernie, send me a Private Message with your shipping address and I will send your prize to you ASAP. Congratulations

    This Drawing is scheduled for November 16th, 2007

    All 2008 Contributors are eligible to win and are automatically entered for this drawing.

    Northwind Associates

    Northwind Associates has donated a 10.5" by 10.5" by 4.25" thick Spalted Maple turning blank. This turning blank was given to me awhile back and is a bit to large for my mini lathe Rather than cut it into smaller pieces it would be better for someone with the proper equipment and talent to find the beauty inside this piece of wood.

    Maybe it would be best if I come clean and admit that my turning skill is less than novice level, the chips on the floor in the picture are from turning pens

    Good luck to everyone!
    Ol'Keith

    Scott,

    There is more to come, Grizzly is donating several items that our Turners may be interested in and more people are contacting me each day with requests to donate.

    The Jet Sharpener, although posted in the GWW Forum might be of interest to some Turners.

    I am still looking for a couple BIG prizes, I'll find em
