back when I was experimenting with sealers (about 3-6months ago) a plug fell off a screw into the container of thompson waterseal. its still in there (I can't get it out!) I should figure out how to get it out though, because that thing will never soak up water!
I missed like 3 through-holes in a row drilling pencils last week, I think the grain was too coarse in the wood I was using which likes to make bits wander. Picked up a new Dewalt 5/32 drill bit though, the thing works good! (it better for close to 5 bucks!)
I epoxied some plugs saturday, for some reason one of them came out looking like a "hammered" finish, no idea why (kinda cool though). That one is for me I guess.
I was cutting a littleneck popper mouth on the lathe with a burr ball, that I had already drilled eyes in. Finished the mouth, but the chuck came loose in the taper and started rumbling out of the headstock, so I held it in with the mouth of the lure while turning the lathe off, and of course it cut the popper mouth deeper, meeting the eye-hole. Hopefully it makes a cool mini-bottle darter though!
