Applewood bowl
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)
 This is my third bowl, made from a chunk of an old apple tree that fell in a neighbor's woods. When the rough blank dried, it was a full half inch out of round, and the round tenon had turned into an oval. All of which inspired me to design the Cole-jaw extenders shown in the fourth photo, an excellent application of the WoodAnchor fixturing system. The extenders worked like a charm, and I'm thrilled with how the bowl turned out.I love that apple wood! Averaging about 20% harder than hard maple, I can see why it's long been a popular choice for high-end tool handles.If you'd like to know more about the Cole-jaw extenders or the bowl-turning process, please check out my Cole-jaw extender blog here on LJ.Thanks for looking!

square is the bane of my existance
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)
 Finished the two sides of a walnut desk – Desk will have a 2” walnut top 64×20
and 2 section of 3 drawers each; For the life of me i can't get it all square. Several drawers and even the frame is off. How do all those YouTube magicians get all their stuff squared? one might not see it but one definitely feels it when puling a drawer. Yes, I use only the holes that can adjust the drawer slides – but maybe under drawer slide would have worked better?
