Miles , I was thinking of extending the deadline to 14th January ,

That way you could still enter and anyone else and still have time to produce a bowl in time for the end of January

Let me know

Allen

 

[miles_hot]

Cool, thanks - I'm in

 

[Wood spoiler]

Hi Allen

I think you would be right to extend the deadline a while.

Lot's of people get wrapped up in family stuff over this period and May have missed the original posts. It will give a period for others to catch up.

The more the merrier (although i am not the one that will try to administer it! )

I see this as a shared personal challenge and of learning more techniques and extending my repertoire through trying new and different things. Seeing how others interpret and create things will be part of that learning curve.

Keep up the good work

Regards

Colin

I wouldn't mind having a go!

Do you have to submit each month? Quite a few of the projects I can't do due to not having the gear to do it all or even some on the lathe and few tools i have. I don't have the correct chuck for bowls so can't do anything hollow really or bigger then 4"

Been thinking about a candle stick holder for a while. Can I drill the hole for the candle with my piller drill?

 

[The Shark]

Hi Blister,

Due to work commitments, I won't be able to submit every month, but if we are allowed to enter and submit a piece when we are able, I would like to be in too, please.
If not, thanks for organising, and hope it runs well without too many teddies out of the pram :wink:

Thank you, are you allowed to use drills for some parts, as long as most of the project is turned in a lathe? Im talking drilling for the candle hole (where most will use a drill in there lathe, i can't) and to remove the tenon when turning bowls between centres?

Am i being thick again? there are no rules on page one of this thread? can't see any other thread for this other the someone asking if they can be excused from janurays. (For some reason when i click view new posts there was 4 pages, i read one post and clicked view new posts again and there was on 4 posts, not 4 pages? )
