    Hey everybody, I am working on a Manzanita Burl bowl and have a couple questions about the finish. I have turned the outside of the bowl and have sanded it down to 220 grit. I then took a brown paper bag and kinda polished it with it turning on the lathe. I really don't know why I did that...

    Nakashima Night Stand. part 1 It was nice using some harder timber for a change. Tasmanian Blackwood that I found on our river bank after a strong wind in 2009. I also changed from my usual 1:6 angle for softwoods to the preferred 1:8 for hardwoods. Very pleased with the results!!!

    Hi All, I've recently been making small boxes, but I'm struggling to find a source of decent quality but not too expensive hardware - hinges and catches etc. I tend to make the boxes out of fairly thin material - no more than 10mm (about 3/8) thick so the hinges in particular have to be small...
