Some random points of progress (red oak rift sawn wood for the sides and back)....

Re: Adding indexer to Shorty for bowl inlay work
That's very nice! I can well imagine the interlocked grain on that bowl is hard to get smooth.

Re: My new bed
Very nice, again! I got that book this year, and I thought your bed was reminiscent of one of his chapters. Great work; let us know how it works out for night-times.

Re: Today in the Shop "Building a steam box"
Here's to the Wagner steam-generator! I have one, also. For this project, though, I did my final bending with the primary instrument being an up-cycled Goodwill hot hair curling iron.

Re: And Another Successful Bookmatch from the SS Bandsaw
FYI, The last posting was from a Flag case project which concluded elsewhere on the Forum. Today, I was looking at a big ol' slab of QS Red Oak. Initially I cut it to use the 2 pretty sides, and thought I'd be throwing away the central "pith". But, the pith could be re-sawn and rotated, to...
