Well, am recovering from a triple whammy. Thanksgiving I had a very bad sinus infection and my wife broght home the covid so I had to get it too. I also somehow managed to get strep throat and so couldn't swallow anything. lost nearly 40lbs and got super weak. But doing better now, still weak. A friend had sent me 4 Osage staves right before I got so sick and I have been staring at them all the time. One is even ready to begin floor tillering but my two car garage where my workebench and tools are is just too cold for me right now. The Osage stave is calling me, no, screaming at me but I can't handle the cold so great anymore. so, I kind of mentioned something to my wife about maybe working on it in the house, we don;t have carpet. But she let me know, no way and left. She came back with this little electric heater, the two car garage doesn't have a ceiling and is big. It would three months on high just to warm up a few degrees. So, looks like I will be studing the stave a while longer. Probably for the better, really need my left eye to heal up better anyways. Heck, it's cleaner than a big motorcylce being worked on inside the house.
