Default Guess who I visited today????

The youngest and I drove out and visited with Rivari and his wonderful family.

He took to his new toy quite well as you can see in the picture AND made a mighty fine first pen!

HPIM0799 (546 x 600).jpg

HPIM0801 (311 x 600).jpg

That was a special treat for my daughter and I, Rivari...please thank your wonderful wife and daughters for us. And yourself, of course.

I got an earful of all the excitement on the drive home and it hasn't ended yet!!!!

Take care and let me know when those new lathe tools show up!

You had a chance until you threw in the white dog.........

Great time Todd, THANKS. She is STILL talking about the visit.

And I "meant" to start a different thread, not hijack this one. Feel free to move it to a new one.

GREAT PATTERN BTW Robert! Are you the same guy that just started last fall?????

Barry, it was a great visit and an awesome learning experince, the only let down is that I have to wait for my pen mandrel to show up (and other tools)which I ordered after you left. Man that lathe work has reminded me of the reason why I love being in the woodshop once again. Now I just need to find a happy balance between it and my scroll saw. And let me add, Barry has one of the single best mannered young ladies I have met in some time. I think my wife and I have already discussed a child exchange with our older daughter for his youngest, we'll throw in a slew of chickens, one rabbit in the and a white dog that I wished would run away in the deal if your interested my friend? lol

When I get back from Alabama we will have to do it again on your turf, that is if your turf isn't sold by then.

Rivari... here's how I justified and combined my scrollsaw and lathe work. I call these my "Herman" characters after a buddy I used to remodel homes with m-a-n-y years ago. My lathe is a 1940's vintage Sears and the swing is only 6" so what I turn in it isn't dwarfed by the size of the lathe. You could turn bedposts with yours!

That first pen looks good to me. Congrats on the new lathe. How to balance between scrolling and turning is a mystery that I haven't worked out either.

That is a fine project there Pop, nice work!

Jeff I never would have had such success without Barry standing there giving me guidence. If you only knew how long it took you would surely laugh, I was too paranoid about screwing it up. I beleive I was cutting well below Granny speed.
