My uncle had a woodworking yard, and I loved to visit him. The smell of the fresh wood was lovely. I still have the little shadow box that he made me over 50 years ago for my birthday.

[@Jace_ScribeofPalara]

Dang, that sounds like it must have been amazing. That comment honestly makes me want to be that kind of uncle for my nephew, if I can ever have the money to buy the equipment.

[@HarrySmithShorts]

Thanks for sharing Patsy 😃👍I have gifted many of my pieces to friends and family and the reactions from them are always so pleasing. ❤

[@HarrySmithShorts]

Thank you for your comment 😃👍I prefer to let the wood speak for itself and allow the tools to tell their own story as they make their changes.

[@allisumskye]

Very nice, that's what I love about wood you can make it into something beautiful every time🌻 👍

[@kellyvcraig]

Yep. I used to heat my shop from my scraps. Then I bought a lathe (which reproduced, so I ended up with four, for a while), so, now, scraps are more myth than fact.

[@garretcastlebright8996]

Fantastic. A work of art that will last hundreds of years.

Kept wondering if you were going for a candle stick holder, bottle stopper or a pencil. End result is both good-looking and practical but it always saddens me a bit to see 90% of the original wood left on the shop floor.

[@HarrySmithShorts]

Thanks Ole, I too hated the waste so I now use the wood shaving around the home in composting, mulching and organic fire lighters. 😃👍

That sure doesn't look like the willow that I get ( but with something like 1500 different willows in the world that isn't surprising ) . I find it to be one of the most satisfying to turn , and there seems to be some chatoyance in every piece , I think it's got something to do with them flexing in the wind
