My Current Limit -Getting a Handle on It
I just can't seem to get the right combination together to produce a good
handle joint. This was another attempt at lapping, which is not as good, I think, as making the attachment areas flat. Perhaps after a bit of reconsideration and hints, I might grow past it. http://photobucket.com/albums/d160/G...y-My-Limit.jpg |

I'd love to hear and see the results of your continuing experiments, it
is something I wondered about doing but never actualy tried... The cup is nice though :-) |

My Current Limit -Getting a Handle on It
Hmmm....
Down here in sunny South Texas it was 81. Expecting cooler (high 75) tomorrow, and by Saturday high of 70. Maybe the warmest winter in our recorded history. Only hit freezing twice this whole winter. Sigh. This usually means a gawdawful hot summer with low 100s and drought. Robert |

My Current Limit -Getting a Handle on It
Last week it was C11 (call it F50), right now we have a foot of snow on the
ground at C-2 (F28)(the storm missed us) and Saturday calls for C8 (F46) and rain. This is one weird winter or fall or whatever. Last week I could find the wood pile and this week I assume the snow pile in the middle needs to be bowls. On the other hand I have little time to turn right now so the indoor stockpile should do for next year or two. -- God bless and safe turning Darrell Feltmate Truro, NS Canada www.aroundthewoods.com |

Robert ==================== The cool front came thru today during the 11:00 AM news. Temp in Austin was 55', in San Antonio, 72'.
