Is anybody still reading this blog?
Wow! It has been a while since I posted anything. Been busy.
Red letter day today… no… not A … just a milestone of sorts. For over a year now, I have been trying to learn how to bend wood so I can make a banjo hoop. I have made a lot of kindling and sawdust, but for the first time today I put together something that looks like a banjo hoop. Look here:
I bent that wood myself. It is maple. It is held together with shiny brass screws too. Here’s another look:
That other thing is the bending jig I invented to bend the wood. In the background you can see some of my failed attempts. But now things are looking up. Can fame and fortune be far behind?
Well OK. Maybe not. I got carried away by the moment.
