Okay..... Seeing that Rockler was a Northwest company I figured Id have a look into their bowl blanks. I've ordered one to test out how well and how fast they ship and process orders. If they come through and are quick about it and in expensive for an order of 5 or 6 I'll order a bunch through them. The pre cut blanks put less work on myself in order to make sure its square. I ordered the 5x5x2 inch block of Walnut Claro. So that should make a nice little bowl. All I just have to do is make sure I center the faceplate correctly and then cut the tennon for the chuck the right way. This is the blank I ordered the other day https://www.rockler.com/walnut-claro-turning-blanks I've also got a hollowing chisel from Savannah tools on the way should be here either late today or tomorrow. So I look forward to receiving this bowl blank. We shall see how it works. Fortunately Rockler uses Amazon Pay so it makes things a lot easier to work with when ordering.

So saw a post on how wood sizes have changed over years. Was this strictly about money on. Companies behalf or was there more to it. Example why a 2x4 is not a 2x4.

In the escapade of converting my drill press to variable speed using a 3-phase motor and a VFD. While it works well, the low speed torque leaves a lot to be desired. The original single phase motor was 1.5 HP and the new 3-phase is also 1.5. I was wondering what the implications are if I had put a larger motor, say 2-3 hp. Other than expense, which would not be excessive, the only thing I can see is the mechanical hook-up. Am i over looking anything and would it even help? PS: I'm going the write a blog post with pictures of the trials and tribulations of this conversion process when I get a chance.
