New project, we'll see how it unfolds.

[Warbird]

Unless you are doing underwater basket weaving. 

[isawlogs]

Its a girlyfriend thing !!!  He has given in  ;D

[Burlkraft]

Its a girlyfriend thing !!!  He has given in  ;D

I haven't believed it Marcel, but now I gotta agree  smiley_blush

[JV]

Yeah, the next thing he's going to tell us that it's for a dear old aunt.   :D

[SwampDonkey]

I told my mother, I found her a new job. :D

I told you guys before, it's a lot cheaper be'n a bachelor. :D

[WDH]

I know what it is......

It is a rack to hang the sealskin boots, the caribou anoraks, sled dog harnesses, and the muktuk containers on to make them convenient to get at.  It gets cold up there, and a person has to have a place to hang things  .

[Marc Thornton]

I'm thinking something for quilts or a way way oversized spinning wheel or something.

[isawlogs]

I'm still thinking girlyfriend 

[Norm]

I'm still thinking I'll never get to see what moose tastes like.  :D

[D Hagens]

I'm still thinking it's my x-mas present
Or it's a present for the new girl friend Btw SD, when ya going to post a few pics of the new girl friend 8)
Darla thinks it's some sort of a coat rack, I think it's a new turbine windmill 8)

[CHARLIE]

It's gonna be a windmill that will run a generator to charge bat trees.

[SwampDonkey]

Now that I have it sanded, I've got to look for a low odor shellac or something that doesn't go on like a film of plastic. I think with maple, if it darkened a little the grain comes out all that much better. I didn't buy this as figured wood, but there sure is some light figure in places. Curl grain hither and yon. I thought some was planer waves, but rubbed it and smooth like glass. ;)



Some ray fleck in the cross pieces. ;D

[Warbird]

Are you going to actually use it for yarn/thread or for wire or what?  Maybe the guys are right and there's a Mrs SD on the horizon?  ;D

[SwampDonkey]

Yarns mostly, yes. ;D

Now that you bring up wire, I need some stainless. Just not yet sure of the weight yet, the reed I want to make should have around 8 or 10 dents for most warps. I'll have to read the old pattern books I scrounged off the internet archives. ;D

[SwampDonkey]

Another cross member shot.

[Sprucegum]

Just as I thought - he's gonna be weaving tube socks for them swamp donkeys

[SwampDonkey]

Here's some eye that the Shellac brought out. They are very small eyes.

[Warbird]

That's pretty cool.  I've a friend who is getting into sewing, darning, and the like for a bunch of projects he has.

[SwampDonkey]

Another piece of equipment I've been perfecting. First step after the parts were cut out was to figure how it all fit. There is only one way, so it all works. ;D

This is a prototype. ;)

[Marc Thornton]

Holy contraption.   8)

Looks like a spinning whirly-gig clothes dryer!  (for a lady friend's unmentionables)

[WDH]

It is a Leonardo DaVinci flying machine.

[SwampDonkey]

It does rotate about the axis and adjusts up and down to widen or close up like an umbrella. ;D

[isawlogs]

  Ok I regress Its not a "girlyfriend thing", it for a "girlfriend's thing's "    ;D

  Norm ifin you want to moose hunting , well we may have to find a spot  ;D  :D

[Norm]

 :D :D :D

It's pretty cool SD. 

[Jeff]

Whatever it is, we don't have them in Mississippi, but I'm sure that I always wanted one.   ;D

You can turn it on it's side and make a paddle for a river boat. You have/had those.
