I had fun playing with the @shapertools Origin tonight and some colored mdf, it’s the first time I got to play with it. Now time to search for answers for newbie questions. . . . . #woodworking #makers #ottawamakers #tools #woodworker #woodworker #woodworkingtips #wood

I’ve completed the wing chin dummy. Solid ash. The main trunk alone without limbs is 80lb. . . . . #woodworking #makers #ottawamakers #ottawaartist #ottawa #handmade #tools #woodworker #handtools #woodworker #woodworkingtips #woodturning #turning #wingchun #wingchundummy

It’s nice to start and complete a simple project in one go. I made this potting table for Jen last evening, a nice Father’s Day in the workshop. #woodworking #makers #ottawamakers #ottawaartist #ottawa #handmadeinthe613 #613 #handmade #tools #woodworker #handtools #woodworker

Jesus, it’s like I can’t catch Covid no matter how many times it’s brought into the house.

So a Manhattan cocktail isn’t good. Normally I like any cocktail but this is like when you take an already decent drink and add in something bad. Two very conflicting flavors. Like wine and beer. You wouldn’t combine wine and beer unless you were already silly.

The truck #convoy is postponed due to possible global war. Bigger things going on I guess.

Almost done with these pens, I’m not sure what kind of wood this is. Any ideas? Babinga? . . . . #woodworking #makers #ottawaartist #ottawa #handmade #tools #woodworker #handtools #woodworker #wood #woodturning #turning #lathe #penturning #babinga #pen #penturning

Here’s the result of my first pen - a pencil in this case. I was tired of moving the ziploc bag of pen supplies I was given years ago around my shop so I thought I’d just go ahead and make one. It’s actually pretty rewarding holding it. #woodworking #woodturning #penturning

I bought a Costco tv 2.5 years ago and it recently developed a faint white glow at the bottom center of the frame. It’s not a big deal. I bought the extended $50 warranty that adds 3 years. I called to have it looked at and they sent me a cheque for refund. Warranty Recommended!

My new foolproof cutting board juice groove setup. @FestoolUSA MFT/3 with a router on a track with the board registered against a fence and two dogs, using start and end stops. Lift, rotate and repeat 3 times. No router wandering.

There are two types of people. Those who mow their lawns with nice beautiful diagonal lines and those who don’t give a crap.
