Hey all, kinda new... mostly a creeper but I'll start partying. Anywho, any of you guys or gals have a bead on where to get blanks that don't cost 40 bucks for a chunk of cherry or something? I saw the firewood block post from another buckeye on here, I might have to take a drive too. Someone around here has to be a producer, where do you get your stock? Thanks all!

Day late . Computer started an update (failed again). By the time it came back up, it was already Thursday. Our Patriot Turners- @Headhunter posted some new turnings in our "Ringmaster" sub forum. Tony sure can do magic with that Ringmaster jig! Please check out his post at- @BuckeyeHomestead asked about where we get our turning blanks! Our members offered a bunch of ideas from their own experiences. If you can provide some ideas and/or sources, please check out Kenny's post and chime in! A few of our turners have braved the cold weather and showed us some more of their turnings in our "What's OFF the lathe." @calabrese55, @Gerald and @kreisdorph New posts start here and has more images! What’s Coming Up- If you missed Cindy's "Tool Talk" last week, she has made it available on her YouTube Channel- Cindy and Todd Raines will be having live sharing event tomorrow January 24, 2025. Click on the image for the link to registration. For The Newbies- Sanding is probably my least favorite part of turning a project. In this video, Sam Angelo, provides some tips he has found helpful. One this I noticed was how he organized his sanding supplies on a cart. I know @Gerald puts most of his items on a wall, within easy reach, behind his lathe. @BuckeyeHomestead asked about turning blanks. Not every turning has to begin with a large chunk of wood. Mike Peace shows us what can be made from smaller branches- Expand Your Horizons- If you have been thinking about expanding your turning repertoire into bowl turning but you are still hesitating, check this video from Tomislav Tomasic. Some really good closeups of tool positions and techniques. Resin casting is still popular and Tim Yoder casts a Banksia Pod for turning a project- New Turning Items- Everything Else- A short video that brought a smile to my face and I hope it does the same for you. It was posted by Easy Wood Tools but applicable to any turning session/tool. Share your knowledge with the kids! Safe turning
