Sure is quiet in here....do I need to start a fight?

Happen to find any good places for parts ?

every now and then a parts saw shows up on the bay. or, even less often, one of my buds will gift me some parts. one of those, when-you-see-it-get-it-situations. looking for a good starter pulley now; helped an AS member with one, then the saw i gave my SIL decided it needed one. all my pulley parts are suddenly gone. seems like the shaft has wobbled the hole out some so the pull rope doesn't want to go home. still thinkin bout how to redneck that to keep it from gettin cattywompus

After that long battle with that 020av, I think I could get through anything..... LOL

Hopefully this tree service job will be able to get me some wood for bowl turning.

Hopefully I can get myself some Oak, maple, fruit wood, ect?

I made some bowels out of Box Elder . Not sure you have that up there ? Very purdy wood and nice to turn !

 

[tbone75]

Ron you should really call that doc and ask about the pain from that shot ? Don't sound very good !

Fruit wood turns real nice, but is a pain to dry.

I did one out of maple burl a while back, that was a real nice one!

My favourites were some I did from plum crotch wood, with a wet sanded oil finish.
When the picture thing works for me again, I will put up a pic of one.

I left mine plain wood. LOL Didn't want to spoil the color. I should put some mineral oil on them.

Anything burl is nice ! Can be a little tricky to turn. Chunks like to come out ! I have one I did , no idea what the wood is ?
Its a canker off the side of a tree. They make some of the best !!

Nice knife handles too !
