I love my turning tools, so much so that I’ve decided to make one more. At least the wooden handle…

Episode 166 – I’m making 5 bellows
At the cottage I don’t have any bellows but I have an ugly one at home. So I’ve decided to make a new one for our wood stove at home and bring the old one at the cottage. Along the way, I ended up making 5 of them.
And this was the ideal project to use Vectric’s Aspire. It’s a CAD program for use with a CNC machine. The company gave me a free trial. If you want more information about Aspire go to the Vectric website.

Episode 164 – I’m cutting some birch boards
I built my new bandsaw to do more with it than what I’m able to do right now with my small and underpowered bandsaw. In this episode, I’m cuttting boards directly from the trunk of some trees.
