President Krasnov, Traitor In Chief

Not sure if I should tag this with the most informative word, but this guy is a real elongated m--kmelon!

Cold morning, but good morning! Sylvia likes the fire.

Missing cap to the cooking oil, so I made doo...

Gaslighting is in FULL FORCE.

Day one, I'm IN the LIGHTS OUT of Meta. Not sure if it will do any good overall, but here I am!

Testing photo uploads of a large panoramic shot. This is the Dreamtime Village apple orchard, West Lima, WI.

Lathe-turned eggs of Box Elder (aka Manitoba Maple) wood. These are cranked out quickly as practice exercises to keep my chops up. With a tool finish, no sanding. If all goes well, and I have the blanks ready at hand, I can do a dozen in about 1 1/4 hours.

Just in time for the frigid cold snap! 100% Ash wood, seasoned for a few months so it gives a hot fire. From my Amish neighbor's sawmill, off a 7 ft. x 14 ft. wagon with 1 ft. tall sides. Piled a bit over the sides, so it's a bit over 2 face cords of unstacked chunks, all for $45!

My first serious attempt at colorizing a turning. A maple trumpet vase with fungal staining, not as visually appealing as spalting. So I dug out my Prismacolor markers to see if I could brighten it up some, using the natural lines as borders.

My first post! Here's a Box Elder Trumpet Vase whose featureless grain makes it a good candidate for colorizing.
