Living Within the Shadow of Crazy Fire
....tread softly on the mind of a man inspired by imagination, since who can afford to play the devil’s advocate, when those who are caught between the planes of time, know no-world to hold them down in audiences of respected places….
....and then i remembered an-other time where….
—-i also was seemingly caught out there in a fools paradise, begging for bread and wages from those other’s dictates, those ones who...

Well, I guess with my first blog entry I kind of set a precedence of being a scrounger so we’ll continue with a little project I made for the garden.Years ago I was given a huge cherry log. At 34” in diameter and 10’ long it was quite a monster setting in the driveway but as with all woodworkers I had visions of a beautiful piece of furniture when the time came. Sawing it up with the chainsaw was a quite chore and a feat in itself but we manage to get some beautiful wood. ...

So, not much to say tonight.
I’m working on a unique commissioned walking c...

I have added two pics of all the dirt I have moved out of the workshop over the past few months. The two updated pics I am standing by the water heater that you can see in the other pics. The small area that is at the end of the plywood is about 8×8 and the larger area is 17×15. Where you see the stack of lumber in the distance there is another 15 feet that I can expand on later if needed.

I had my final electrical inspection on my shop today and passed, just received one suggested change. that was the good news. The bad news is that I will not be able to have the electric hooked up until the end of the month, this really sucks eggs but what can you do. I will start moving my equipment into the shop this weekend and will be going to Knoxville TN. to pick up a band saw and radial arm saw that has been given to me by a family member who bought but never used them. Hope to have so...

So, after working with a few battery powered tools and some very basic hand tools, I convinced my girlfriend that I could be much more productive, efficient, and accurate with a table saw. The only thing missing now was money…
Being low on funds and “in the right place at the right time” I was given an old and very poorly maintained Delta Contractor saw from a friend who’s father recently passed away. In my excitement to get it back to the house and clean it up(th...

The state income tax man was a little generous this year. I’ve ordered a new piece of hardware for my shop. I ordered a Grizzly wood lathe model G0462. I ordered it on Saturday and it’s going to be delivered either today or tomorrow. Another example of the great customer service I’ve come to expect from Grizzly.
I’ve never used a lathe in my life. I’m anxious to try my hand at turning, but I’m also a little afraid. Turning seems to be something tha...
