    Cool Shirt for Turners

    I have just ordered two of these shirts. http://community-2.webtv.net/rfniles/WOODTURNERSLOGO/
    I have no interest in this product other than want one (well two) and want to see Ruth sell enough to make it worth the trouble.

    RE: Cool Shirt for Turners


    Barbara, Thank you for mentioning the shirts. I've lurked here for quite sometime and have enjoyed reading women's opinions. I didn't want my first post to be self-serving, so hesitated about showing the logo. I put together a quick page showing the penciled design I drew. Very soon I will have a picture of the actual silk screen print as it appears on the shirts. The address for shirt info is http://community.webtv.net/rfniles/WoodturnersLogo Thanks again. Ruth Niles

    You are welcome Ruth. I didn't realize you were a visitor here. I'm glad you have stopped lurking (sounds so sinister). :-)

    I used to read/post in another ww'g group but the guys were rough at times. It's a lot "softer" here. I've gotten some good tips here. And I agree "lurking" sounds like a "Peeping Tom". Ruth

    RE:I Got My Shirts!

    I love them; one is tan, the other green. Now if the weather would just warm up enough so I could wear them.

    Hi, Ruth, glad to welcome another refugee from the wreck. Still miss a couple of guys from there (Lyn Mangiameli, Doug Stowe, for example), but just couldn't stand the hostility. You, OTOH, seemed to get on quite well.

    Hi Pam,

    I wondered where you went off to when you drifted out of the wreck! Glad to meet up with you again. I slipped out the back door from there, except for a very few, it's all new names. I just got a new General lathe and have been getting terrific reproduction/architectural jobs for a contractor who specializes in Victorian home restoration.
    I was playing with a plane today and thought about you! I couldn't get the danged thing to slide and make curls. Just a small job I needed done, but I do have a lot to learn about regular woodworking techniques.

    Barbara,
    Don't know if you were aware my website has moved. My son surprised me with a new site at www.torne-lignum.com He's such a nice boy! (39... boy??)
    Also if anyone here would like to see Barbara's smiling husband modeling a shirt, we have a picture on the "satisfied customer" page. He is such a good looking model!

    RE: Cool Shirt for Turners

    I'm just getting into turning a bit, making some hammer handles for Steve Knight (not really all that public a knowledge at this point). I'd love to hear about your General, how big it is, etc. Did you find you had to know a lot about Victorian design to do the architectural work?

    If a plane won't slide, most likely the blade needs adjustment, maybe just sharpening; but there are many things involved in tuning a plane. I just got the cutest little palm smoothing plane, an HNT Gordon, amazing.
