Thinness

Hi,
it's been a while,
this thing of markets keep me quite busy,
i need to find more street place,
and i need to improve how to show my stuff...
i bought a cuople of aluminum frames for 30 euro each,
i was lucky to find a good man that wanted to get rid of this frames...

i fix above car, they are really light...
But summer is up to the door,
and wood need a bit of shodow, 
so i have to think about some gazebo...
 
However seemed i have to do a library for a customer,
230 cm large - 207 high...
will be in fir...
3...3,5 cm thickness..


Today after a while i put a piece of Metasequoia glyptostroboides on run,
try to do really thin,
it's around 2mm but it have rough surface..
The fiber....it's a conifers...need to be really sharp....
enjoy a lot, but everything must to be clean at the end...

i got a couple of new place where make street market,
we will see how is going,
sure you have to show if you want to keep alive your work...

Cheers

it's pity people i met when i was on market haven't send me yet pictures they took for me...
i forgot everytime PhotoCamera at home...
Soon i let you know how i'm organize street market with pictures...


Finally i got a pictures...

i almost no turn for about two week and hands are starting to itch...
i just have to show a couple of pieces i made while i was on street market...

i sold something, but becouse i had to raze price...
i mean a big black walnut bowl (35x12 cm) sold for 30 euro...instead of 60 that was its price in the start...and i thought it was good already..
But 30 euro or back home on Foot...

Funny Things was i could have sold maybe hundread of small lathe to the people who had stopped lookin' at me when i was turning in MarketStreet......
at least 50 people asked me if i had on mind to sold my small lathe...
That make me think a lot...

by the way, i really enjoy be on street...
turning open space it's perfect, even if the surrounding distracts me a lot indeed...
a couple of small pieces flew away from lathe...
but i had plexliglass protection for who are lookin' at...

i'd like to show you a piece of yew i worked some time ago,
and a couple of piece i made on street demostration...

 

that is BoxWood and Cocobolo...
