Good to talk as always. It keeps us sane (nearly).
This is the link I mentioned. In brief the bloke takes an old Oak log, cuts it up with a chainsaw, surface with just a router, makes it into a table and along the way creates his own brass alloy:

I appreciate some of you have already seen this.

I'll see you there. Topic could be what size do i cut pen blanks?
When Bob raised the issue of his small diameter Elm cuttings in todays hook up, we almost immediately digressed into Walnut with indecent haste :rolleyes: . I mentioned that a certain type of hand saw featured Walnut almost exclusively.
This thread identifies the specific use and I make mention of it at the end of post #2. It is also visible in the catalogue descriptions if you enlarge them.
It was a good discussion today, a little philo- sophical at the start, but what do we expect with inspiration from chairman "Phil."
:wink:

Paul
Ps: Walnut was occasionally used for other saws too. Disston sometimes used Walnut for their early D8 saws and during the WW2 they used it for their Victory saws (D-15s which were marketed as D42 and D43) instead of Rosewood, which became unobtainable.
.......as per standard prattle procedure :U.Quote:

For those that have got this far, I'm not going to make this week so feel free to adopt or ignore the topic :)
Let's just be clear here before anyone makes a fool of themselves; you mean vices like smoking, drinking, gambling and the pursuit of women of easy virtue, right?Quote:

Lets not start about English and American spellings; I already know. :wink:
Perhaps it is just as well I can't make today with such an ambiguous subject.
I think it is a good one. As my absentee contribution have a look as this bloke.

Hitting things hard. Sounds great. I will see what I can do. I just have to fit the Prattle in between concreting. I have a little beauty included in the line up courtesy of IanW.
