To find something to use in keeping this blog going TWW decided to mount a Menard's 1" x 12" board back on the lathe. This was the same board with a second board glued to the back to mount it to the lathe without having screw holes in the finished product TWW first mounted in March when the board caught the chisel and overstressed the lathe and the lathe was out of commission for 6 weeks. And outside expert warned TWW that the glue block did not need to be so big but as TWW Sr. told TWW (yes he is a junior) when he was little "you always have to learn things the hard way".
TWW got this first beautiful pine plate almost done but when he was trying to pry the glue block off of the plate the plate transformed into a plumber's plate. Hopefully, a little glue will hide the mistake. And once again TWW cautions people to never buy something they see on the Internet.

Think of the positive....It could premier as part of the new Marly-line! (yeah, royalities for marly-though I don't suppose she could retire on them as a quarter just isnt' going to go very far!)
