Getting ready for a show at the local mall next weekend... Haven't been confirmed yet, but pretty sure I'll get in... they've asked me a couple of years in a row and decided to go this year... it's inside, on Friday and Saturday... plus they claim to draw from 6 counties, so we'll see... Fee was pretty low at $75 for the weekend.... only problem is it runs from 10 am to 9 pm, so will make for a long long day. Can't let Dianne go with me as she won't be able to hold out for the whole 12+ hours because of her back and the pain she's in... Hopefully, Ed, my step-son, will be home for the weekend and he'll go with me. If not, I'll make do by my self.... These are some glue up mills I've done this week plus two natural woods...
These are the natural woods, Spalted Hackberry - 8 inches tall and Greenheart Poplar - 10 inches...
These are my glue ups... a couple didn't exactly turn out as I envisioned, but still look good - Dianne loved them all..
Spectraply "Red Rider" and Maple -- 9" tall
Ipe and Spectraply "Camo Supreme" -- 8" tall
Maple and Spectraply "Royal Camo" - 9" tall
Brazilian Ebony, Cocobolo and Maple over a red oak core (I was using up some scraps laying around in the way) -- 10" tall
my blank trimmed out a little narrower than I planned, so it a pretty straight line turning.
Spectraply "Winewood", Purpleheart and Maple -- 9 1/2" tall
This one is a real conglomerate -- Ash, Spectraply "Winewood", Purpleheart, Maple, and Brazilian ebony -- 8" tall.
