A gloat and an oops

Jan 20, 2007 3 Replies

Got a call last night. A gentleman called and said he saw my picture in the paper with my display of bowls made from different woods at the local library. He said he had just cut a wild cherry tree and would I be interested in the wood.



Aw, shucks. Sure I would take it off his hands so he wouldn't have to pile it up and burn it. This morning I picked it up. Now I have 16 bowl blanks sliced up, labeled and sealed.



The oops? While painting the sealer on, I sat my cup on an upended blank. It tilted over and spilled, right on my shoe! Now I have a sealed shoe. If it turns out well, I may seal the other one.

Have fun and take care Leo Van Der Loo

Please be sure to tell us how well the sealer worked on your shoe(s). My bet is that they will stay as shiny (or dull) as they are today for a long time.
