i was asked to donate to the local rotary club auction, and it was pointed out that “it would be a good way to get my name out there”…so, here’s a lil something that i’m hoping will lead to more business…oh, btw, it’s made from ash, stained & sealed with a natural minwax stain, wiped with natural colored danish oil, and finished off with liquid gold…if i’m doin too much finishing, please let me know?

i hadn’t thought about that miss carole…i will be sure to put in a ‘warnin’ when i do the description note for the auction…thanx for pointin that out
mr. w-n-t, i had thought about usin an FD-UR #3 blade, but thought since it was a hardwood, i’d had better use the bigger/stronger blade (FD-UR #5)? all i have for now are either the FD-URs or the spirals, and i def remember what you’ve told me (twice), about those spirals….i haven’t had any time to practice cuttin with them
thanx for the kind words, and advice

Please keep us up to date with any information you receive. I would really like to get into this, but my computer skills are almost nonexistent, I need something that a 74 year old air head 🙄 can figure out. Thanks for sharing.
