Fantastic!! Where do you purchase your pig suede from, if you don’t mind telling? Cheers Robyn

Thanks.
I bought the whole pigskin from ebay for £40 inc delivery…

Pig Suede Skin Garment Leather EU Hide .6-.8mm Craft 10-15ft Top Quality COLOURS | eBay

The Beige Lining Pig Splits are smaller skins between roughly 3.5 - 5.0sqft, with the small one roughly 80 x 45 cm (31"x 17") and the larger ones 90 x 60cm (35"x23") although theobviously all vary as you would expect.

However i got a courteousy call from them to provide advice and make sure it’s the correct product for my needs (very helpful). They also said it would be cheaper if i bought direct next time and they had a much larger range direct than what they list on ebay, so will give them a call next time…

Made another podlet today, chose a piece of sherry that was cut back in August, unfortunately it started to split as I was turning it but it held together and I managed to finish it, heavily soaked it in Danish oil, hopefully it won't crack any more, also broke my live centre while roughing the branch down

made another microphone box, lined using custards methods of lining boxes in the sticky thread, it'll be sent out to the USA soon.

Needed a little stand for a glass dragon, and as I had a beech plank with a large knot, I decided to utilize it...


Added a base and sides, so the recipient can put a tealight behind it


And this is the effect (if the video will play)

Hi, this is my attempt at ring turning and jewelry making. I know it's not wood work, but make in my garden workshop.

Small little drawers I made as a gift, oak body and Bolivian rosewood faces with half blind dovetails.

Forgive me brethren for I have done wrong....

Work asked me to assemble 3 flat pack bookshelves... No pics cause I already feel so ashamed .....

 

[Phil Pascoe]

You assemble flat packs? You're a better man than me, Gunga Din.

 

[MikeJhn]

A worse crime is if you read and understood the instruction.

And another crime is you missed the "be" on your post, "cause" is a totally different meaning to because.

This is what I have done a couple of times with end-of boards that have cracks and shakes in them. I cut out the offending section and glue other off-cuts between. This hides the fact the grain won't line up but also makes for a larger bowl. This is a bowl from a mahogany end piece crossed with two strips of teak (brown), three strips of what I thought was Sycamore but it has orange coloured flecks which I've never seen before. I know it is not Maple. It's 320mm wide and 70mm high.

Really nice, shame to put anything in it and hide up the work.

I needed an adapter for my cyclone dust extractor so I could use a 1000M3/H extractor. 100mm to 45mm. Even at low quality print, it took 4 hours. High quality would have been 12 hours. I use an old Aquavac at the moment. It works very well, but I thought the large extractor would work better.
It was garbage, just too much loss through the cyclone. I'll just make another adaptor for the bottom and use it as a funnel.

Wow, amazing!

I’ve made ideas in my head. Scored some elm on gumtree. Oh what will it become. Trying to persuade the wife it’s got dining table written all over it.

Seen some very effective planks like that turned into a dinning room table with coloured epoxy or similar about 75mm wide joining them together, rough edges/bark left on.
