This is what happens when you decide to rearrange your shop while simultaneously getting rid of two rolling tool carts/workbenches. You end up with a messy shop with a bunch of stuff that no longer has a home. And to think, just this morning I could walk around my shop without any problems. My plan for the next few days is to come up with some good storage solutions and get rid of some tools that I no longer use.
I'm picking out the wood for my next project, which is going to be a stave snare drum made out of jatoba.
Making a mess with my router table.
I sanded up to 600 grit, wiped down with denatured alcohol, and applied two coats of sanding sealer to all 24 of the little Mysterious Cups of Mystery. Tomorrow I'll apply the finish.
I am really sore after turning what appears to be 24 egg holders in one afternoon. Of course, that's not even close to what they really are...
I've had a busy couple of days. I realized that I have way too many bowls at home so I'm taking some to put on my desk at work. The big one is from some free lumber I got a few weeks back. It's several big slabs of mahogany (I think) that have been glued together. Two of these have been burned on the outside. One is sycamore and the other (with the large grain) is ash.
Playing around with shapes again. This one was an experiment with a gradually tapered wall thickness that is about 1/4" thick at the base and gets thinner as you move up. It's made of ash and is finished with sanding sealer, Ack's paste, and O.B. Shine Juice.
This one was kind of a failure in that the shape that I was experimenting with worked a lot better in my head than in real life, where it ended up looking more like an ashtray than a plate. Also, it cracked on the edge of the mortise on the underside but I think I can fix it with CA glue.
I got some recording in this weekend.
