  2. Quick tool box

    Looking at ken90712's toolbox reminded me of this quick get me out of the house for a few hours project. It isn't as fancy as Ken's (in fact, it isn't hardly fancy at all!) but I enjoyed making it. It's 31" L x 11"W x 12" T (outside), which is just long enough to carry a handsaw. I use it to...

I have not turned Spalted Red Elm before and found it a delight to turn although the odor it gives off smells like a horse stall! I learned how to make the unique finial a...

  16. Off Topic Coffee Lounge
    While I understand that the large majority of Non-Shop Talk is NOT about politics, nearly ALL of the political "discussion" is dominated by a very few individuals who espouse radical/extreme views typical of the FOX "news", without regard to being neither factual nor balanced. Promoters of this...
