Thursday morning and lots of smoothing to do This is the hardest part of carving and this is what separates the boys from the men for not leaving any scratch marks on the carved pieces. Gene I used the same number blade for cutting the picture out then also for cutting all the pieces apart. # FD- SR 5 flying dutchman blade from The Wooden Teddy Bear. com It has nothing to do with all those teddy bears for it a wood working site. Order them 1 gross at a time and they will be much cheaper than the blades from the big box stores. I built this blade holder the week I bought the 788 in 98 or 99? I used 1/2" pvc with wood plugs in the bottoms. Can't remember for sure but there must be more than 20 tubes for blades and I bought some of all I could find to buy, anywhere........ fast forward, all those blades are still in that nice little storage container. Only two other blades I ever use is an Olson blade for metal sawing with the scroll saw...which has no teeth at the bottom of the blade sticking up from The Teddy bear.com and an Olson precision cut blade for cutting away the out side of the carving pieces I don"t need. Its also a reverse tooth # 5 but it saws and last longer but when new it wants to go faster????Only word I have for it as it is more agressive but not as easy to precision cut when needed on inside sawing!!!! And its from The Teddy bear.com also. This carving I\m working on now I used the same blade. This bull I'm shooting at you are my own opinions. Lot of people out there has more opinions than they got brains and again this is just my thinking... Lots of wood to smooth so I'll check in when more has been done.

Just a reminder that we are about 2 weeks into our summer raffle to help offset the costs of running the Patriot site. If you haven't already picked up your tickets for some awesome prizes, here's the scoop! Our Patriot Turners- Our turners were back at their lathes this week! @RustyFN posted his curly maple segmented bowl and it is a beauty! Rusty received lots of positive comments about it. Check out the post at- @AndrewB turned a slightly different style pepper mill. The grinding mechanism is different from his past turnings- Andrew shows us his progress from the rough blank to the finished mill- Andrew also gave us a review of his new buffing system He gave us the link to this product in his post- One of our long time members posted his first turning. @Ron showed us the beginnings of a cane he is making- He received lots of encouragement and some suggestions on this turning- @forty_caliber poste a question about using the parting tool. Check out his post and see if you can offer some suggestions or ideas- @Steve Krumanaker started turning a tall vase from flame box elder. Looks like this is going to be a beauty! More images in Steve's post- Just a note here, if you subscribe to the Woodworker's Journal, next issue has an article about flame box elder- https://www.woodworkersjournal.com/box-elder/ Steve has decided to up his game, when deep hollowing, and ditch the laser pointer for a more advance method of determining wall thickness. Check out his post on his most recent upgrade- @Gerald challenged us to post our Mother's Day turning gifts. Gerald's gift turning is fantastic! See additional images and our member's comments in his post- I need to start writing down the trails to some of the stuff for each weeks Wednesday's... I can't remember how I came across this video of Gerald's presentation to the Magnolia Woodturners- What’s Coming Up- A little something different from Cindy Drozda- Click on the above image to Cindy's site and registration information. From the AAW- Click on the above image for the link to more information and registration. For The Newbies- We have been linking videos from Record Power on lathe maintenance. Although aimed at a specific lathe model, the information can be pretty much applied to any lathe. Here is part# 3Part# 3 of Mike Waldt's beginner series for turners. Again this is a replay of a live session and is kind of long. From the World Wide Wood Turners, a nice demonstration on various methods of holding a turning. Expand Your Horizons- Mike Waldt has something for the more advanced turner in this video- Alan Stratton's take on chasing threads Mike Peace recently published a video on the various types of spiraling and texturing tools. Within the video, Mike refers to links for longer videos on each tool. He also has a PDF article that can be downloaded at- https://www.mikepeacewoodturning.com/2019/05/03/texturing-and-spiraling/ IMHO, there can be no greater honor than to be asked to create a burial urn. Sam Angelo has a video demonstrating how to calculate the internal volume using some easily made measuring devices. New Turning Items- Robert Sorby Brand Ambassador Darryl Jones introduces the Deluxe Sovereign TurnMaster Box Set- The folks at Woodturners Wonders have a heavy duty compass capable of drawing 28" circles.

Decided to see what could be found inside. I'm surprised that I could get this much. Sill a couple of cracks that will need taken care of At this point I normally submerge the piece in the soap and water solution for a couple of days and then on to drying in a paper bag with shavings. Turned out my pot is only 12" in diameter!. I CA'ed the cracks, wrapped the bowl in stretch wrap and put it in my little drying box (ala Rick Turns). Then for the cleanup! Safe turning and stay well

The Three Mirror Vanity is a really cool file/plan. Today, the modern, contemporary, danish modern has made a big comeback. And this project fits right in with what is hip today. It's amazing how good design never dies. Have fun!
