i love projects! i often see woodturners exchanging turnings ie a completed hollow form ( roughed out and sanded) then sent to a woodburner or painter to finish. the collaboration is excellent usually!

Help Support UKworkshop.co.uk:
is it weird that i'm thinking about next year already! i use to do the not so secret santa thing in AAW , nice people but this site is more personal shall i say! smaller group, and different ideas. And i feel a lot closer to the Uk than the usa. my step father was from mitcham commons, sutton surrey,
My wife is from Surrey,BC canada , but that's a whole other story. i was always told don't go near surrey girls!
i was born in Peterborough,canada with our school having a sister school in peterborough england,
i just got a huge box of maple burl blocks. 3x3 by 6 - 12" long, pepper mill blanks. i think that could be top of list!
My wood room is crying to make things to lower stock and make room. all dried burl!

@Lefley wow that's a lot of wood, I'm very very jealous 
The children finish school today for the 2 week Christmas holiday so I shall be spending some of my "work" time next week collecting some of the extremely splayed silver birch that is out around the edge of the school field, it's been out on the ground for about 3 years but some of it is still solid and without cracks, can't wait to bring it in and dry it out
