Ahhh...so many ideas, so few logs. I'm going to be playing volleyball with a potential supplier tonight. Hopefully I'll have some logs for the weekend. Life's been hectic lately, I'm not even sure there will be a MotM this week. But yes, my hands miss that numb feeling assiciated with chisels and power tools.

OK OK We'll Stop Bugging you since you updated the Beachcomber. Thats not a nice way to prevent shark-bite, but I guess it works as long as you QUIT TELLING People!
Raffer strikes again. Nice one again.

I have two large and very dry logs of an undetermined type of wood sitting on my patio. This weekend I will pick one of them, and "go Benzart" on its ass.

These two very large logs my friend brought me are, well, crap wood. Very chunky as far as chiselling goes. Yet my stubborn nature wouldn't let me move on until I finished what I started. So now I have this monstrosity that, who knows, may almost be finished. Mostly using an angle grinder. One more weekend may tell me if it is salvageable, or should be tossed in the sump. Its brother log, which was massive is already in the sump in pieces.
Moral - Don't start carving a piece of crap wood because it will suck the life out of you.
If you don't see pics of it within the next week it means that it has been scraped. I have a fresh logs of oak and cherry that won't let me waste much more time on this wannabe freakin' crap wood log that wasted my summer.

I just found out where the party ios.
633 SW Gailbreath
Port Saint Lucie, FL 34953. Spare bedroom, Workshop so we can finish him up and test him all out and everything.
He just looks SO Great where-ever he is but south Florida is where he needs his winterhome! I'm sure Benzart won't mind
