How do you spell......

.....relief............



First bowl I've turned in a L-O-N-G time.............

Not done yet, but BOY if felt good.

That is some Cherry that I picked up a while back!

Gee Stu, I was beginning to think you forgot how to spin stuff!

Stu, the bowl looks great! Your worklight has a great word on it...as if you need to see if while on the lathe, the most relaxing ww tool in the world IMO.

Like the grain in that piece.....Looking good Stu!

Beautiful bowl Stu with some beautiful grain. I to like the lamp (RELAX).

Question.......If you don't see the obvious....as in Stu's message.....does that mean the message qualifies as "subliminal"?

Stu"art",

That's some purrty wood there my friend. Now, it was dry already, not green wood, right? Was it very hard at that stage? Just askin' queschuns, lernin'.

Aloha, Tony

You turn? Since when?

Thanks gents (you too Vaughn )

The word RELAX is on there, as I tend to grip the tools too tightly, and that puts a knot in my neck after a while, not to mention it does my turning little good

Yes the wood is dry, should be, it was DNAed for 24 hours, wrapped up in paper to let dry for 5 months, if it ain't dry by now, I'm in trouble

The wood is some cherry I got, the tree was sick, that is why they took it down, and I've found that these sick tress often yield some really interesting grain patterns, but the wood can be difficult, as the (in this case) dark areas are a bit softer than the light areas.

Got it all turned off tonight, sanded and it now has a coat of WATCO oil on it, I'll let that dry then finish it.

Nice to turn again!

Relief......Rolaids.....Exlax.....Preperation H.... Spinning Cherry or just Stuing around & around & around the shop. Oh by the way great bowl.
