Topic tags/keywords: lathe turning

Another great day. Working on a little turning project. Glued up some lumber to try a bowl. A little something on the lathe. It’s not fancy shmancy, but just some practice. Is it a bat? A club? Or an attitude adjustment tool?.. You tell me.

Oh ya, it must be summer.. The hammock has returned to the yard. Might be an afternoon hammock nap coming.

BTW, the Old Cranky Workshop could use a few more likes. I’m trying to get over 1000.
