    Yep, we're too damn far away as usual Allen. But great that the wood is going to turners instead of the chipper or ---

    Big thanks to Graham for passing on the info on this one. I dropped by this morning and cut up a bit to keep me company and will be passing on a couple of pieces to a friend that doesn't know he's getting it yet

    There's a couple of lovely big pieces with Y crutches but it was made very clear they were out of bounds

    If anyone else goes to pick some up... the lump with a shiny bit right in the core about an inch in and the texta marking METAL with arrows pointing at the shiny bit isn't your friend. Made my brand new chain blunt way too quickly but I couldnt fit any more in the car so wasn't too much of an issue I guess
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    one of those Y crutches is now safely cut up and end sealed stacked in the shed I should have the other one cut up by friday (SWNBO permitting) I have 6 good sized bowls roughed out and packed in shavings the colour of this Camphor is just so good and wet turning is a lot of fun even if you do get sick and tired of wiping your visor (need wipers fitted)
    this is one of the bits I cut about 2 weeks ago

    Bet you'll be looking for something different to turn by the time you get through roughing down that stack - should keep you out of trouble for a while - enjoy!
