Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[3000 FPS]

It’s lost it’s meaning over the centuries. But it was a large elongated bowl to mix and let the bread/ yeast rise

mostly used as a centerpiece for bread or fruit now

Ok that makes sense.

Ok that makes sense.

Does anyone else have this problem????
I go to the shop to turn some bowls that mama keeps saying sell for so much money.
I bring it in the house for inspection and she goes on and on about how awesome it is and how much it’s worth ........ then snatches it up and says it will go great right here and I’ll put xyz in it!!

I do not have that problem. It's not that Cowgirl wouldn't do the exact same thing, it is that I'm a complete gumby when it comes to making things.

I suppose it does mean less accumulation of stuff in the house (apart from chainsaws).

Very nice if I had the room I'd be turning bowls .

Who is the chainsaw guy on YouTube with the false buck teeth, who explains things like ‘pitch’, ‘gauge’, etc.? Something like ‘Travis’, ‘Darrell’, etc . . .

He had some good stuff, but I forgot his name.

Thanks

Yes!

Thank you!

A bit goofy, but has some good info, and is entertaining.

Well, you have purists, you have practical people, then you have balls to the walls hot rodders. In all fields of collecting, not just saws or cars. One of the things that top the list with Savage1899/99 collectors is, should you put a scope on a vintage rifle. Savage didn't start drilling them for scopes till the 50's. If I want to scope one, I buy one that was D/T'ed, or one that some one else already drilled. I'd never drill a vintage one, there are plenty out there already buggered up. Here's a few of mine with scopes, a few without, what's you opinion?
1912 1899H in 22 HiPower, with 1912 Malcolm 3X scope.

1950 99R in 250-3000, with 2X Redfield.

1951 99R in 300, with Leupold 3.5X10X50

1928F take down in 303 Savage, with Weaver 4X and Lightfoot no drill scope mount.

1912 1899F Saddle Ring Carboine in 30-30

1915 250-3000

I was cleaning out my IMGUR account, have a few more, but thought you might want to see more saws.

I'm getting almost as many John Deere's, and they all run!

Pretty eclectic bunch of collecting

Did the finish sanding on the dough bowl. Lots and lots of sanding but I got the shape I wanted applied a coat of shellac a few minutes ago . I also picked this edge sanding Diablo 40 grit wheel works very well for shaping

 

[JustJeff]

You can do a lot with those wheels but you have to be gentle. A whoops will remove more material from where you don't want to remove it from and in a hurry!

Nice bowl, I love the grain. Did that crack start when you were shaping the bowl? Green wood? Maybe hit the crack with CA glue to keep it from migrating.

 

[SS396driver]

Yes the crack started as I was shaping . Wood slab had dried for 4 or 5 years I cut the end grains that were cracked . But when I got the wood thinned out it cracked I used 5 minute epoxy to fill it . 8f it fails I'll put a small butterfly in it and re epoxy it

It's a lot more forgiving than the Arbortech tool that has 3 carbide cutters on it spinning at 12k rpms

Found two dead ash trees that broke in the winds. Think I finally spotted an EAB under the bark. Now I know why they are called Emerald.

They are up there have Coopers on it now 305/70r17 e rated good tire but even though it's still got tread it gets stuck easily in snow or mud . Had Bf Goodrich TAs on it before that but the price was way to much . Truck came with 265/70 on it but looked way too small . Looks like I'm going with the Goodyear wrangler AT Adventure in 285/70 and ironically the best price was from the local Goodyear dealer.
Still looking at 1400 all in . Just spent 650 on the driveshaft still cheaper than a new one

I found Toyo open country at3 in that same size for the Dodge. 1200 online but found a shop nearby to m/b for 1000, that was a steal. Nothing is cheap anymore.
