Well, folks,
It turns out I didn't get *completely* hosed in the christmas present category! Number one son came down from NYC late, and brought with him a...
wait for it...
A 5/8" Alan Lacer skew chisel! First really upscale chisel I've ever had. It's very cool. Oddly, it says hamlet on it, but what the heck? Speaking of odd, he gave Doorlink a "Santa Baby" outfit. What kind of son gives his mother lingerie? But she liked it, so what the heck...
Anyway, I was so happy I went out to the shop and thought "What cool thing can I make for Thomas, equivalent to this lovely skew?" It just so happens I had a chunk of apple trunk lying around, that I'd picked up a couple months back. So, time to turn. Even used the new skew to clean up the rim. 9" wide, 4" tall, spalted wormy apple. Hard to see the details, but I ain't getting a new camera anytime soon...
Thanks,
Bill
