Thread: A sharp weekend.

Glad to hear all arrived in good order.

Hope it is a productive weekend for everyone, we wanted to be there but planned it for the wrong weekend as we are in Sydney for the wood show.

, I have 3 or 4 8" grey wheels if you want them. All new.

There are plenty of stubbies already in the Tooradin area -
you can buy them new at the local bottle shop then when
used they get discarded by the roadside.

You can pick them up for nothing second hand.

Allan, that's the second time a post has brought a smile today. Many thanks.

The tall loud lout from Ballarat needs to be brought back to earth I think. (And good God, he can eat!)

Looking forward to the v. Calm Challenge on the weekend. I suggest we all get out of the firing line.... Ready, set, GO.

We need calibrated turning blanks so they are working from a equal footing. Is it gonna be green wood? Cos that's more funnerer of course. Bowl blanks or spindles. Judged on height, distance or acuracy?

Tea Lady, let's not make it easy for them. Something hard. But then again, that means a lot of dust....

Perhaps the two combatants might tell us of their preferences

The longest curly over the shoulder...

Ken Wraight will be here as well showing how he gets his super fine edges.

I've been nibbling the bait, now had to go and set the hook good & proper!

I'm supposed to be working for a mate next w/end, so haven't arranged for transport...

...but if some kind person could give me a lift in to Tooradin, then if my mate really wants me to work he can come out there to pick me up.

Oh good! I can appolagise for calling his Princess carriage ugly. Looked much better in real life.

Skew, I'll be travelling down to Melb probably around midday on the Friday and can pick you up. Sat nav sure helps. But does it help you?

If not, someone please help. I want another Skew demo on the Oland after it's been sharpended.

Skew, where are you? I could swing by and pick you up on Saturday.
