Reyd- my server doesn't show any new posts from you in rec.woodworking other than a couple of comments about hiking staves and a lathe for sale. I don't know about the metalwork group, but I'd suspect that maybe your posts didn't get past your ISP. Could that be possible?

Oh- As I tell the boys in my Scout group... Yer not stupid- just ignorant. Remember that ignorance can be cured with knowledge. Stupid is forever.

Try asking the questions again- and don't forget that most of the turners around here are also well skilled in wood, metal, and other trades too .

I've seen several posts in the last couple days - today I noticed the CA magazine and the Vancouver Is. shop posts - maybe it's just a busy Saturday out there.

On another subject, I've wanted to drop you a note to inquire about the success or failure of my suggestion on obtaining a scroll chuck... Have you sent a plea? Have you received a reply? You don't have to give specifics here if you're uncomfortable doing so - please feel free to email me privately.

Your post about the Canadian woodturning magazine didn't mention the name of the mag..........not much to comment about. I always like to hear about a new woodturning magazine.......they're pretty rare, you know. Tell us a little more.

Maybe you posted the same posts in both groups simultaneously (known as crossposting)?

A lot of people seat up their readers so they don't see crossposts because so many crossposts are spam.

I can find only one recent question from you on "rec.woodworking". It was the one looking for a source for alabaster/soapstone on or near Vancouver Island. Because of the restriction of the area, the question would limit the number of replies.

posted through google, and I think they went throught because my ISP's server downloaded them. I posted the same message as here asking about alabaster/soapstone sources, and some questions about what metals to use for different things in metalworking, more people more chance of answers. in article 6Oz2c.31425$ snipped-for-privacy@newssvr26.news.prodigy.com, Victor Radin at snipped-for-privacy@NOSPAMameritech.net wrote on 3/6/04 11:02 PM:

you mean about a chuck for the school lathes, we got a reply saying that there are factory seconds for 20% off, but unfortunately it seems that the shops acount is currently in the negative numbers, so we are gonna wait for a while.

canadian woodworking magazine. and its the name too

it just has stuff on turning occasionally, although its more ideas and pictures, there arent very many of the useful details.

nope, one concerned tool shaft materials and metal type things, the one in rec.woodworking was more about finding alabaster and soapstone in article snipped-for-privacy@4ax.com, Mike Patterson at snipped-for-privacy@the-patterson-family.com wrote on 3/7/04 6:50 AM:
