Got a little done on the pepper/salt mills

Inside of both are drilled. Outsides need shaped and hopefully they will be duplicates in shape!

One of the reasons I love woodworking, we are always hopeful! Like, man, I sure hope this works!

Last week my granddaughter said she wanted to do another wood project with me so I asked her what she wanted to make. Her reply was "a fish". So we searched on line and found a fish wall hanging she liked and yesterday I picked out some scrap wood she liked and cut the necessary pieces out with my scroll saw.

This week she is on a summer trip but I told her when she got back the fish would be ready for her to bring to life. She is becoming quite the artist.

I will post pictures when she finishes it.

Yesiree!

some chores to do today, then start working on a little box.

Just getting over what historically was our best show of the year. Again it did not disappoint, so instead of sleeping in during vacation this week it was off to one lumberyard to get maple, cherry, and walnut lumber. Tomorrow it's off to the other to pick up purple heart, bloodwood, padauk, and canary wood.

The rest of the week its busting splinters to replenish stock on the items we sold out of yesterday. Fortunately. This weekend's show is only our 3rd best for the year.

John, what are your best sellers? I have an acquaintance in Norway who is always complaining that his stuff never sells- mostly candle holders and off-center stuff. He asked me what sells well in the US. I don't do shows so I couldn't answer his questions.

It's all over the place for us. No one item consistently out-sells the other. The best i could do for them is to have them explore our website or Facebook page for ideas www.roundbarnwoodcrafts.com
