What Did You Do Today?
BowEd:
I hear ya Pap and Keenan about that posy tillering deal.
Well to day I might rough out two choke cherry cut back in Oct.They've been a stave for that long anyway.Gonna clamp it to a form like Dean Torges' R/D form to be sure it don't twist only in a very slight reflex.Just enough to get enough pressure so It can't twist on me..The staves have been behaving good so far but still don't trust it.It's cold here too and drying is'nt very fast which might be a blessing in disquise.I'll cut it 2" wide and 1" or maybe 3/4" thick the whole way evenly except for the handle of course.I know it's different cherry but I might still sinew these on acount of blackhawks' explosion lately.
Adam:
I just replaced the thrust bearings on my bandsaw. The ones that were on there when I bought it were not sealed and did not spin very easily. It works much better now.
PEARL DRUMS:
I skinned a static osage curve and got her ready to seal tonite. Its coming along nicely.
stringstretcher:
Got a couple more osage staves taken down to a ring. Let the drying begin....
Stringman:
Cleaned up the garage and swept out the dust. Getting. Ready to but her a beef this weekend with my bro. S'pposed to be in the 40's on Sat and that will be darn near perfect for meat cuttin!
