Great compilation of all the activity here.

Congrats for the honor to present at the new club. Obviously they knew where to turn (no pun intended; alright it is a bad one:lol:)

Oops on the finial. FWIW, like my dad always used to tell me "if you never make a mistake it's obvious you're not doing anything." Come to think of it, that used to irritate me some.:P

Ayways, great job hosting this forum!

@Steve Krumanaker Thanks! I really like this tool!

 

@Gerald Thank You! I need to make a better set of jaws to hold those tiny pieces (3/8 x 3/8). What I was using was a friction fit hole that didn't offer enough support to turn without the tail stock.

 

@HandyDan Thanks! Normally I'd use a different tool for some of the cuts. I get pretty good results from the EWT rougher (straight cutter) on small beads and the EWT finisher for coves. Just wanted to see what could be done.

 

@Grandpadave52 Thank You! Hope I don't make too many blunders during the presentation!

 

 

Also, Thanks to all who responded to last week's post. I really appreciate the input, comments and ideas.

Thanks for this weeks update.  The detailer seems to do the job but I prefer a detail gouge over it.  I get a smoother cut and therefore less sanding.

Dan!  How would you know?  You have to try it first my friend....  then make up your mind.  I get beautiful ribbons of wood and a very clean cut with this tool.
