I guess that's how you get your exercise...looks like you are on a rowing machine.

I had the opportunity to rasp and scrape a hickory backing off of a lemonwood ALB I was making when a splinter popped loose in the backing. I'm trying to save the lemonwood belly. Still more to do but at least I got this far.




...see the whole story in "Hickory Backed Lemonwood ALB..."
