Damn, George!
We need to get you on Tucker Carlson's show.

YT is owned by Google. Need I say more?

Anyone out there tried anything in the Rubio Monocoat line yet?
Apparently originated as a wood floor finish. Appears to be a linseed oil product that can be used with or without an accelerator.
Tons of colors. Can be had in small sample size bottles.

I've had good luck with my 14" Craftsman.

FYI if Kurt is using HSS then he doesn't need to worry about the heat, you cannot draw the temper of HSS under normal circumstances. True Sheffield steel, for sure. Does that apply to Chineseium, though? Chineseium! Good one! I also like "Kung Flu". Gotta make Xi's arse pucker some more.

Blasphemy!! A lathe is a lathe! You are forever tainted! Turn in your magnifier, now!.
It takes a lathe to make a lathe. So how did someone make the first one? Chicken or the egg?

As I recall, the earth wobbled on its axis for a couple of day after George caved and finally got a lathe

When watching this video, take note of the fact that his chamber tool is probably sharp enough to shave with. That makes a HUGE difference in the quality of the chamber finish and greatly reduces the effort to use it. I'll also throw this out to Kurt: would a spoon bit achieve the desired result as ...

How about Premal posts a Master Blueprint and everyone takes their best swing at nailing it.

I guarantee more people would learn more stuff in less time than doing it any other way.

Good idea!

I think it might be a good idea to see the composition of the participants before selecting a theme. If there are more newbies a classic theme seems like a good way to go ie billiard, bulldog, apple. If there are enough pros/semi pros we might want to pick something more interesting. Anyone remembe...

Set up a poll like last year.

Perhaps Briar Works in Tennessee.

The pictures of my slot cutting rig are back up ("And this page"...........) While some out there can cut the slots in their sleep, I am not one. Look at this page http://www.pipemakersforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=11114 And this page http://www.pipemakersforum.com/forum/viewtop...

Another solution: thread'em (when working from scratch). Cut diagonal grooves in the threads internally and externally with a rotary tool to lock everything in place once the glue has cured.
