Ruining lots of good wood to get a few average bits.

That's a skinny stem. Whoever gets it better not put use it to keep rings and things in it.

Live long, love lots, and turn fast.

I think that I calculated it to 5 specks of dust and you would be ok. but 6 specks and SNAP Nah!

Gary, that's Bart, he eats everything, I am surprised that his twin ( believe it or not ) brother is stood so close to him without getting scoffed up !!!

I too am looking forward to seeing all of the different styles, I need some to copy, wanted my bowl to be flattish to show up the thinness of the stem, I think it worked ??? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
