Elm Gloat
My neighbor just cut 5 Elms in his yard. I cut and hauled 3 truck loads
of blocks. Allowing for a few bad sides, I have around 80 bowl blanks when they are sliced up. So far all are sealed on both ends and 10 bowl blanks are ready to rough turn. I keep telling myself it is only a hobby, but myself says it is the next best thing to WORK! -- Gerald Ross Cochran, GA Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else. |

Elm Gloat
Aside from sore backs and the cost of chain oil, we call this "free wood."
Enough free wood and you too need a chiropractor. Nice gloat. -- God bless and safe turning Darrell Feltmate Truro, NS Canada www.aroundthewoods.com "Gerald Ross" wrote in message . com...
