Wednesday's Wisdom for Woodturners June 20, 2018

Featured Replies

A day early and just a short one this week, sorry.

 

Please, let us all extend our sympathy to @John Moody. His Mom passed away Tuesday. I know your prayers will be appreciated.

 

@Ron Altier Has built some beautiful display stands for some of his ornaments.

Please go to Ron's post and see what others have had to say-

 

 

 

 

@Smallpatch has added awesome detail to the teapots he is building.

Check out his continued progress-

 

 

 

 

 

@Grandpadave52 posted a link to The Woodworker's Journal newsletter. The newsletter is asking for responses to interest in a new free woodturning newsletter. If they receive enough positive responses , we might have another resource for turning information. If you think you might be interested, here's the link-

Speaking of woodturning resources, the Woodworkers Guild of America is offering a set of 3 DVDs on woodturning techniques by George Vondrisk. I have not seen these videos so I cannot say how much information they might offer. You can see more at their website- https://www.wwgoa.com/product/wood-turning-techniques-3-dvd-set/#utm_source=WWGOA&utm_medium=email&utm_term=70OFF&utm_content=C12701&vscid=C12701

 

 

Patriot member @Gene Howe alerted me to an article in the most recent Popular Woodworking e-magazine. Gene said the article was about using a toilet plunger as a jam chuck. I do not subscribe to Popular Woodworking and couldn't locate the article online. If you subscribe to the magazine, check out the article it might just be something you can use.

 

 

Safe turning

 

 

 

Thanks Lew for the weekly post & nod...

I signed up even though I don't turn. If it's only half as interesting with projects and information as this site then it will be good.

 

Thanks Lew. 

Thank you Lew!
