Well, another important painful, but not serious lesson learned 🫤

I feel, perhaps for the first time ever, like I've discovered a secret treasure. I cut up late log and the whole thing, like 10-12', is spalted through and through.

I'm hoping someone can help me.

I lost the arbor nut for my Wen 10" jobsite saw, and I'm having a devil of a time replacing it. No one has it for sale, the manufacturer is out of stock and told me it was a "standard 5/8" nut", which is no help at all

Taking the trash out this morning, I noticed a reasonably big fallen branch. I've wanted to try wet wood turning, so I figured why not?

Holy Hana! This wood is gorgeous! I'm renting a chainsaw tomorrow and chopping up the rest of it!

Another two axis turning experiment. A little rough, but I'm pleased with it.

My first go at both multi-axis turning and a Christmas ornament. It's only poplar, so it's not all that exciting to look at, but I'm pleased with the results.

Y'ever have one of those days when life is kicking you in the balls and just won't stop? I dropped the arbor nut for my Wen table saw. It *should* have just dropped into the catch pan, which is what it's done every other time. Nope, it vanished through an interdimensional portal. #woodworking

Crappy plastic knob cracked, so I gave it what it should have had in the first place, a hand wheel.

Turing my first pen video. I went with Purple Heart, because I had some on hand. It does have a nice "antique" appearance.

These are cheap pen kits I grabbed off Amazon, and I'm really not a fan. They're much too thin and small. But they were cheap, so good for practice.

I've been practicing hand sharpening my traditional tools, because with carbide tools available I can't justify dropping hundreds on a tormex or the like. I nailed it with this roughing gouge! It's going through hard maple like butter!

@vicedrhino.com That moment when you're talking to a Christian about porn, and they say "come to Jesus"

Seriously, you can't make this shit up! 😂😂😂

Ugh... and *have a Quest headset*. Words are hard.

I can't help geeking out about technology, especially when it overlaps something else I enjoy like #woodworking. If you use Sketchup, and a Quest headsets, there's an app that lets you view your projects in VR. Imagine being able to set up a virtual gallery that your potential customers could peruse

Working on a chessboard. Looking for opinions on the pieces. These are prototypes, but they are the size the finished pieces will be.

If the US takes direct military action against Iran in the next few days, I most likely will be back out anti-war protesting again this weekend, whether there's one officially organized or not, even if I'm out there alone.
