Overflow valve on water heater let go today.... I fortunately came into the shop to get a replacement blade for a coping saw and discovered it. Couldn't have been too long, but still had some water to deal with. Anyway, while waiting for the service call, I got the lathe fired up and turned eight ballerinas and a couple spooks. Carbide cutter on a Vega is really a pleasure to work with.
I have a couple more shapes I want to work on, and a couple plugs I want to copy. Plan on turning into January with some drilling and sealing mixed in, as I find that the most tedious step. (I like the turning/shaping the most) But the season is on!.
Need to build a jig for cutting darter slopes, get some ball rasps, and if I'm really good, get a Worksharp.
