Turning Club President's Challenge Project for August
The Silicon Valley Woodturners club has a President's Challenge -
for one calandar year, turn a piece (or two or more) each month that uses the first letter of each month. For August, the first thing that popped in my head was ANTS - perhaps because the warm weather seems to have caused every ant in the northern hemisphere to decide to visit MY house - and stay. Odd how the mind works - especially with a little sleep deprivation, a good dose of caffiene and maybe a little hypolglycemia. August : A A : Ant Ant : Aunt Aunt : Uncle Uncle : Unk Unk : Ahnk So - I made two ants and almost done with two ahnks, out of a white, or nearly white, wood, probably poplar. I'll be submitting Albino Ants and Ahnks the first Wednesday of August\ The ants were interesting to turn - all with a 1/2" curved edge skew - 3 pieces for each leg, times 6 legs = 18 leg parts, 2 turned spheres for eyeballs, 2 turned antanaes (sp), plus the body comes to 23 turnings per ant, times 2 = 46 turnings for the antS and two more turning for the ahnks brings this project to 58 turnings. Fun. charlie b Thanks the stars for CN glue! |
