The square tubing turned on a corner that is used for the sliding base on a Wolverine sharpening system that has the stop that either the arm of the jig or the butt of a tool fits into, is that 3/4" square tubing(outside dimension flat to flat) or what? While I am asking, anyone have one handy to measure distance across the tubing corner to corner diagonally?

Thanks for any assistance, still whittling on sharpening systems!

Have some door and drawer fronts to get sanded and finished. Have a new scope to mount on one of my plinkers. Need to go see my nephew's softball game also.

What's everyone else got going? ]]> Off Topic Discussion Darren Wright http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?30390-It-s-Friday-5-24-2013-Edition Ouch, I-5 Bridge Collapsed http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?30389-Ouch-I-5-Bridge-Collapsed&goto=newpost Fri, 24 May 2013 05:02:32 GMT The Interstate 5 bridge over the Skagit River collapsed due to being hit by an oversized load this evening.

They pulled 3 people from the water and there does not appear to be any others missing (so far). Good thing there, but this will be a major mess. You can not believe the amount of traffic, both cars and commercial trucks that run down the I-5 corridor from Canada to Seattle. This bridge is about 30 miles south of Bellingham. My wife travels over this bridge about once a week to see her mom in Everett (just north of Seattle).

Just google I-5 Bridge Collapse and you can get the latest news. ]]> Off Topic Discussion Bill Satko http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?30389-Ouch-I-5-Bridge-Collapsed Too Good To Hide In The Organ Build Forum http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?30388-Too-Good-To-Hide-In-The-Organ-Build-Forum&goto=newpost Fri, 24 May 2013 00:08:38 GMT I just have to show this.

Ice cream scoop, pizza cutter and bottle opener all dressed in apple. Not fancy turnings, but functional.

No finish yet, still waiting for the weather to decide what to do.
