When my friend Shelley approached me for a collaboration, I kinda didn't want to do it.
Because I've been "done" with charcuterie boards for a few years now.
But as we got a little further into the conversation, I knew I couldn't NOT do it.
Because there's very few things cooler than artists coming together to create something together that's greater than the sum of its parts.
We're pretty happy with how it came out.
What do you think of them?

A bit of a different one this week, as I take my camera out into the woods to try to rekindle my love for photography as I meander along the paths around my hometown...and meander in my thoughts about what it means to be in love and whether we should fight to keep it or if it's enough to just appreciate that it showed up at all.

Like seeing the actual full photographs I take when I'm out doing this, or music performances I don't put on YouTube anymore, or random poetry I write or....lots of things.

Never in my 30 years of drinking would I have thought I'd be able to ever say I went a year without it.
But it's not all roses and puppies and rainbows and joy. In fact, because I spent 30 years of my life finding happiness at the bottom of a bottle, I don't know how to find it somewhere else.
In this video I talk about that struggle. I don't know the answer...and maybe I never will. But I know I'm going to keep looking for it.

In this video, I take one of the "leftover" chunks of Maple that my buddy Brad gave me and see if it's any good for turning.
Just goes to show you, as I always say, you never know what's in any piece of wood until you dig in there and find out.
Here's the video where I broke down the maple to bring it into the shop:

I frequently get questions about how I sharpen my bowl gouge, what angles I sharpen at, etc. and my answer is always the same:
I do this, but what's more important than WHAT I do, is that I do the same thing every time so I know how the tool is going to work in the same way it did before I took it to the grinder.
That's where the Vari-Grind jig comes in. Once I find a geometry that I like (for now) I leave everything set the same way so that every time I go back to sharpen, I'm not changing any of the geometry on the tool.
Let me know if you have any questions in the comment section and I'll be happy to answer them.

In this video, I turn a bowl out of London Plane, and talk a bit about how I decide which side of any piece of wood gets to be the "top" of a bowl and how it's not necessarily the side you might think.
