    Default My New Toy At Work

    Milling out Caragana logs into 3/4", 7/8" and 1" pen blanks along with some
    2"X2" Turning Blocks.

    So far I have been quite happy with the General 14" Band Saw.

    They look like they will make nice pens and a nice looking bandsaw.
    I'm looking to buy my first bandsaw soon

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

    Careful cutting even book matching could yield interesting sets of pens, your saw does you justice as does everything you seem to do it so cleanly and well.

    Bought and collected a ton of slate today feeling envigorated after a siesta this afternoon.As a young man I used to work three jobs to support my family of eight of us, I understand while you are young it is easier to keep things so neat and orderly, you are to be commended indeed.

    All the best regards Peter.
