So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

The maple bowl is finished on the lathe. It's tricky to sand on the lathe because the fibers cut one way and then lay flat when I sand. Some lathes offer the option to turn the other way for sanding, but mine is an old one that doesn't, so I just do the best I can. Now it's sitting in a box of shavings to help slow the drying process, because I turned the wood when it was still green.

I just got back from holiday and am about to do some house cleaning. It should take me most of the day.

Lazy day today. A couple of phone calls to catch up with people I haven't seen in a while, lunch with a friend, and a lazy afternoon on the porch with my wife watching the world go by.

Show us a pic when it's all done!

I'll see if I can get it all to work
