Bill had to cut this chunk of firewood to cut off corners and a branch stub so I could get it balanced enough to go on the lathe! It is a piece of Camphor and the whole garage smells great again!
There are some very interesting grain lines showing up which is promising! I didn't work too long but I am feeling better enough
(second round of antibiotics to the rescue!)
to play for a bit after dinner last night!
Of course, it was so hot and humid,
I didn't last too long before I was soaking wet
and had to come in for a shower!
All of the wood chips stick horribly when you are all sweaty!
I did sweep up quite of bit of sawdust when I was done because I do like having my workspace fresh and ready each day! It was nice to be working at the lathe again!
I bet that smells so good! Will this be another bowl?
ReplyDeleteWood chips....the bane of my existence. You can't get them out of anything and I always seem to pick them up from somewhere and we haven't done any cutting for a long while.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear you’re feeling better.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing how this turns out!
