For those of you thinking about that new chuck for your lathe you are definitely in luck. The Easy Wood Tools chuck is back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had the good fortune to have tried this chuck a few years ago. It has to be the finest on the market today. The fit and finish is absolutely perfect. The zoom ring makes adjustments quick and easy. Changing jaws is a "snap". You owe it to yourself to seriously consider this awesome lathe accessory.

I guess you could say when you run out of projects just shoot the moon. Good one.

Nice job without much help from the "regulars" :) We'll have to try harder.

Great picture Lew. Perfect visual to take time and just reflect on life, woodworking and recent posts. Thanks!

Did you have a flood, lew? :D

Great Wednesday post. Even though I don't turn, I really enjoy seeing your compilations each week. We have some very talented folks here.

Thanks very much Lew, always look forward to this post.

I went back and studied your moon picture. Realizedl it isn't water so,  what is the moon reflecting on? I'm gonna be up all night wondering.:D
