July 22, 201214 yr comment_26548 I think I've hit a wall. I went to my local hardwood distributor and picked up some 8/4 purpleheart and maple for a few end grain cutting boards but for the life of me I can't seem to find an inspiration. I've looked at what seems to be thousands of cutting boards in the last couple of days but simply nothing excites me. I also haven't turned anything lately nor have I scrolled anything either. It's been at least a week since my latest project and I haven't been productive and it sucks! Report

July 22, 201214 yr Author comment_26553 Thanks John & Lew! Thanks Lew, I visit this site regularly and have been a fan of Lary's work for a long time. This is one of the patterns I've looked at but need more time to figure out and consider the process needed to execute the build. This is one of my favorite patterns but haven't attempted yet. Report

July 22, 201214 yr Author comment_26551 Thanks again Lewis. After responding to your response I went to the shop and looked at my stock and I think I have a game plan. I'll locate Larry's blog and see if I'm on the right track. Thanks again, you provided the spark I needed! Report
