@Loner57 oh man you are good on a lathe. Really good!
I’m not as experienced as you. I haven’t tried lids yet.
Camphor Laurel is a good wood to turn and a pest species. Makes you feel twice as good using it and aroma is lovely.
Belt lathe, I don’t know if I if I would have the patience.
I’m learning on a Carbatec. Hare and Forbes looks like a very nice lathe to use.
Wood Turning is the only thing I can do with both hands 🙌🏼
On Instagram, I follow this guy. I want to turn the same style bowls and plates for myself.
My day is done. I’m filthy dirty and just consumed a beef and gravy roll, like my life depended on it.

Hey @Glisten
Did the lathe turn up?
Reminds me of the time one of the woodworking teachers tried to flog one of the lathes from the school...not to mention a few TVs... lol!

@StuF surprised the five finger discount of government property doesn’t happen more frequently.
I was at the Men’s Shed monthly meeting and El Pres announced a lathe is arriving Thursday and is going to a “member” aka me 😆
Fix an Hoover stick rechargeable vacuum cleaner this afternoon.
Think I’ll go crawl into the sauna for a nap. Every muscle hurts.

@PeppyPatti sorry I’m exhausted. I can’t think straight and I’m sore all over.
Magnesium. Can’t live without it.
Potassium and magnesium muscles need both.
Makes a huge difference to my physical health.
Thank you for reminding me to shove some in my mouth.
Babe you sew 🧵 all the dogs you want!
It’s not hurting anyone and if it blows your hair back. Then well and good.
Think I need tomato juice 🥤

This was a very la-di-da private school! Just backed the truck up over the oval one night...

@Glisten heal quickly my friend.
I am struggling I must admit. I have no motivation to do anything, having my first coffee at 5pm.
I'm looking at a new diamond painting and trying to muster up enthusiasm to start it.

Hope everyone is faring better.
Be kind to yourselves, sometimes getting dressed is the biggest achievement in a day ❤️💐🫂
