Our Patriot Turners-

Member @Steve Krumanaker showed us a neat setup he concocted for easily transporting a lathe for demonstrations!

 

 

In his post, Steve explains his setup and some of the design features-

 

I was watching @Handfoolery's guitar build on YouTube. He has posted some of his journey on the Patriot woodworking forum. What caught my eye was the equipment he was using to apply finish to the guitar. Finishing is not my strong suit and the spray set up he used looked like it would work well for turned items.

The video showing him finishing his guitar-

 

New member @Tay-da-Tay asked us for information oh harvesting a tree with burls. I've never been fortunate enough to have been able to have this experience. Hoping our members/readers can offer some advice.

 

What's Coming Up-

If you missed Cindy's Tool Talk, last Friday, she has it posted on line-

First of the month and the "4-Ways" collaborators are at it again. This month we are missing Tomislav Tomasic. He is recovering from some surgery. The project is a carvers mallet.

Thanks Lew.  the glass jar lid video caught my eye.

Wow!

Good post Lew and maybe someday when I get the shop and house put back together I will do some of these projects.

I'm falling down on my job! Sorry for being VERY late on thanking you all for reading and commenting on the weekly post!
