Now my band saw is set up for cutting out turning blanks for Bowls. I had just started making the hidden drawer in the back of a larger drawer when I decided to TURN-TURN-TURN Breck

Don you hit the nail on the head not as much fun as turning, I loved having the finished band saw boxes, but they were an effort to finish. Turning seems to fit my personality so well that these other things are just not as attractive to me anymore. The music boxes I still get pressure to make but my mahogony supply is getting low so I think I will just Keep Turning

Of course the name Tasmania brings up thoughts of exotic woods everywhere in my mind. Glad to hear I have a compadre over there. Just keep turning. Breck
