Also, sawed through this 8.5” diameter log to get at a section that will be split and then turned into a bowl for my niece (fingers crossed on this one). Very productive shop day today!
@aa I imagine that that is an extra level of satisfaction - giving a gift that you have crafted yourself. And lovely to be the recipient as well.
@crossingthethreshold you are exactly right. I love every part of making it, but giving it is truly the best part!
