Wet Saturday afternoon..

Were you trying to Urn brownie points with SWMBO Andrew, or were you just Pottering.

To which came the reply:

Chas, he needs encouragement not punishment....

Take heed, on-lookers. This is what comes of watching bits of wood go round, and round, and round, and round all day. Don't say you weren't warned... [-X :lol:

Nice piece, Andrew. Think you might have just identified a piece of wood for me too.

Cheers, Alf

What you mean, I spent all day Wednesday listening to a finely tuned Band whilst Sawing some stock. :shock: Music to my ears.

Don't get in a Lather Alf, it's a collective thing, turn to your 'spinny thing' bed and give your hand tools a rest, by the look of your Blog you may be needing to chuck something yourself before the collecting starts to take a hold again. :lol:

Another nice piece Andrew.
Like the grain pattern.
Doesn't the Cedar get up your nose.
I haven't used it for a few years now but it used to have a terrible effect on me.

Doesn't the Cedar get up your nose.

No,to be honest,I quite enjoyed it - definitely one of those pieces that I get the urge to pick up and smell every time I walk past it (imbuya and tambooti have the same effect on me - do I need help ? :wink: )

Andrew

I can understand your pleasure Andrew, but please be careful, if your body decides it has had enough, the first you may know about it may be a very severe reaction.
