I almost missed this but that's ok, I got it covered

For me its a couple of items that were sold over the last few days that I have to now replace back into stock. So its 1 pen, 1 hair pin, and 1 needle case .  and a couple of bottle stoppers of which 1 is mostly done, that I already had been working on.  If I get to do anything else I'll be lucky.

So what's on your plate for the weekend?

This website is new so it doesn't have much to it yet but you are welcome to take a look

I'm working on stock also Charles.  I'm building four flag cases.  Maple, oak, cherry and one from sapele.  I've never worked with sapele but man does it have a natural tendency to twist.  I'll be surprised if it sells because of the cost.  We'll see.

Finally got the shop cleared out enough to get to the lumber rack and then got a request for some table top rolling pin holders. Trying to mentally design something different from the last ones. If it works, I'll post pix.

If I ever get these *$&^% sculpted BSBs done, I'm gonna take a week off!

Springtime Honey Dos have kept me busy for the last week. Most are done....for now.

So, this week end I'll be sanding and fitting curly maple drawer fronts (BSBs are black walnut) and, hopefully I can get to filling some of the walnut's stress cracks with turquoise. Then, it's on to sanding the bodies of the boxes. (I love my Ridgid oscillating spindle/belt sander!)

I made some rather unique sanding pads to get into all the curved parts. I'll get some pictures later. And, some folks have expressed an interest in my technique for filling voids with turquoise or what ever. I'll post some pictures of that, too.

I was at the Farmers Market this AM and sold a couple small things, had a lot of ooohs and aaaahs over the knives i made last week, and did get two orders for these, but they don't want them til Christmas. Which is fine they are church members so I know they will get them. 

II've got a few things I need to get cut tomorrow so the wife can do some painting next week.

Sounds fun Phil! Great fun! I am going to surf on over the FOTMD and see what's going on over there in the builders world.

My 9" Sand-Flee just arrived so I will be setting it up and trying it out... my project is to make a wood mobius strip from parts of bowls made on the scroll saw, fashioned after one I saw that was made by Malcom Tibbetts... it is a followup to my Orb and Wavy Ribbon projects.

Spence, be sure to post some pix when its done.

Maps, maps, and more maps - sold out last weekend and received a couple of orders for them (one going to the UK).  Gotta get about a dozen out so I can take some to our next show next weekend.

'Soooooo many patterns - sooooo little time'

Okay so it is Monday and I just got to post for the weekend.

Had an outdoor craft show on Friday. Huge crowd and sold several items. Sometime this week or the weekend I will have to get the items sold replaced. That maybe for next Friday's post.

So here is my table setup on the sidewalk. Had a lot of people stop by and visit and some shoppers also.

I also went and help a friend clean out his dad's shop. His dad passed away several years ago and he had some walnut and mahogany that he gave me. Wow was that special. While there I saw all of these parts of old laminated water ski's laying around. I ask what his dad did with those and he told me he make porch swings. Just so happened he still had one stored in the building.

  made from old water ski's. Pretty cool.

Other than that is was a quite weekend.

Great looking display John, but I'll have to say I'd rather look at the water ski porch swing , that thing is just too cool.

Greg that is a pretty cool porch swing. Would have never thought of taking old ski's and turning them into a swing.

Nowdays that would be called "vintage" or being green.
