Couldn't stand it any longer!

I had to set up the lathe and turn something. It's just a piece of 2x2 that I tried out some skew work on, but damn it was fun!

The wife is going to kill me when she gets home, but I don't care! I had to do it!

Thanks. It's not on the most sturdiest of table, so I kind of had to chase it around while I was first turning. Makes concentration very difficult! :biggrin:

I have had similar problems, though not turning related.:wink:

Oh, by the way... congratulations on a fine mess of wood shavings!
Your wife is just gonna love the stuffings out of you, no doubt.:biggrin:

Just tell her you were preparing for the winter -- some nice kindling and some shavings for fire starting.

I have a few turnings like that around also. BTW, just use a quick release clamp on 2 of the legs where the feet go to hold it to the table.

That is a nice looking thing-a-ma-bob. How are you going to incorporate it
into the custom auto interior that the book in the photo suggests you are working on?

Just blame it on the dog or kids, whichever you have handy. That works for me until Ed and Cav emails the truth to my wife.

It's actually a dohickey widget which goes in my flux capacitor on my Delorean.
