[crw-talk] Making ash chips

[John & Donna Griffiths]

Re: my post about an ash bowl I made, I sent it from my phone and when I 
typed to words, somehow the auto correct changed the name of the wood to 
"Catharine wood" at the beginning of the 4th sentence.  Lord knows what 
I tried to say, but I have not invented a new name for ash trees.  I 
might have made reference to the wood being catch prone.  Keep those 
chips flying, John

Catherine wood was rather dry, very hard to turn and catchy since I mostly used carbide tools; and the Hunter tools like to self feed and give me gouges to try to turn away.  Did a lot of scraping to get it sandable .  Letting my first coat is wipe on soak in as I write.
