I want to do some woodturning on Mars.

What do I need ?

Be sure and take some trees (or parts thereof) since there don't appear
to be any there.

No redwoods?

=================

It seems that any wood would be red wood, but maybe not redwood. (:-)

Your objection occupied far more band-width than the OP, and wasn't as funny
as the ensuing thread. Maybe YOU'RE the troll.

In that "woodturning" has come to mean turning anything on a lathe (i.e
bone, plastic, alabaster, etc), not just wood...I suppose one might find
a number of alternative materials on Mars to turn.

It certainly wasn't funny, but it is interesting to note that someone is
tracking this guy. I've been mostly lurking here for a couple years now and
have seen this guy's posts quite a few times (and on rec.woodworking).
They're easy to pick out. I kept wondering why he continues to do it. It
never dawned on me why he usually had one and only one other crosspost
group. Most trolls get bored after a while and bugger off. But I find his
trolls are often entertaining and on-topic - a welcome change from the
political and religious trolling that infests many groups. I remember one
where he said dragons kept burning down his village and asked if anyone
could suggest a fireproof wood.

Second that

Was there anything that worked. LOL? Or did the dragon win?

At least the extra group is snipped now.

His village called and they want him back...

I do agree that this "Troller" is more entertaining and less offensive
than some others we've seen. It shows that he's using creativity to gain
his trophies and if my addition to this string shows that he's winning
by not being offensive and by being entertaining then by all means, add
me to the list!
