Hey hey everyone, hoping all is well out there. Been in the shop giving it hell as always even had to rewire the shop from the service pole, seems I had a short somewhere in the pipe buried in the ground. All I can think is that I may have nicked it when pushing the pipe over it and thats what done it. Had 240 across one leg and nothing across the other. Lost a couple shop lights when it shorted so I order a 6 pack of 4,000 lumen LED shop lights from amazon at $135 are you kidding. Put them with the other 6 pack I got a bit back and I have so much light in both shops now its crazy bright, I love it! All is good and I got chips flying and making man glitter lol.
Did an interview with Vootra that you all can check out here if you like, was a neat opportunity to get the word out for wood and what I love to do, pls have a look.
The karelian burl and the amboyna have been fun to work. Amboyna is always exciting with its fragrant aroma and beautiful figure its my favorite burl hands down. Have a couple of those left that I will be adding to the site next week. Sold several of them early after getting em and cant believe I still have a couple left. Even have a couple of the Karelian left as well, figure they will both move really quick once they post to the site.
You all know I do live edge from time to time and have this gnarly Maple Burl blank I am going to turn into a WS. This piece is just nasty looking to most but underneath and even at some of the live edge areas I feel its going to be a stunner
Whats your thoughts? I love making magic.
Got alot going on round here and even a trip Spain in March, woot woot! Cant wait to go, meeting up with several heavies in the industry and to meet several long time friends for the first time ever, what a blast it will be. Can you believe I will be hanging out and grilling with @phattpiggie & @Aezhenn just to name a couple.
@fastiron Thats really a nice unit you scored. Cocobolo is by far one of my top favorites to work and like how you described your holding it and doing what you do. I am glad you are finding it to work well and hope its proving to be a solid. WS does not run a resistor, it utilizes a SS sheathed solid ceramic heat cartridge.
@dendamper Hello there and thanks for keeping strong and sticking with me. I havent wanted to say much as I didnt want to jinx it as I have had many many delays in the past. My guy is working on the CE application and doing the papers now for this and hopes to have this done and WS available for sale this month through his site at https://www.vaporisateur.net/ so get over there and tell him to get his butt in gear and lets make this happen! BTW I have family Houliart, its a neat little village I think you would call it.
@sisonpyh Appreciate your kind words and your regiustering here and posting up. FC is a great place and I hope you find a place here for a long time to come. Wow get this I just looked at the date in my little right hand corner of the screen and see its 2019 so that means I have been round here this year for 10 years wow! So there ya go you can see I have made a place and must say it feels like family here always. I have said it many times, I dont like nickle and dimeing anyone to death and dont like it being done to me, it just aint cool.
@sixstringsmash Thanks for stepping up with the advice bro, hope all is well for ya.
@-dab8- Appreciate your posting up too bro and will be in touch with you really soon my man. I am eager to hear what you think and how ya feel.
@Ramahs Haha heck yeah! Bro you really have a sweet rig and stand, I am a heartwood/sapwood contrast kinda guy.
@Stripzest Bro I am sad to hear you didnt stick with it but as you said you let it go. From all the units I sold from BF I had 3 users that seemed to have issues. Had two of them sent back to have me go over and am awaiting the 3rd still. The two were rocking for me and both checked out fine. I know that logs have a bit of a learning curve, I take it for granted as I have been using them for years and have used every log out there in every way they have been made I figure. I see great videos and posts by users who are killing it with em and can see how others can get caught up in those and once in hand arent able to see the same performance and get frustrated and give up on em. I wish you had had a better experience but know that logs arent for everyone. Thanks for letting us know and for the cooperation with it all after the fact.
@LesPlenty Bro I feel you and like how you do. To me I feel its more about technique and finding that with the WS, once you nail that then its ready and ripping at any moment.
@Hollabackatcha I believe you are right.
@Alexis Hope all is well for ya.
@Alex3oe I have one of those little tattoo devices, was my first VVPS for the Zap way back in the day.
@doublerainbow Thats right its just about 2 1/8" at the largest OD overall. I dont know much about glass so cant help in any way for that. Will say that I have added several species back in stock and have the couple of burls to add and will also be adding African Mahogany this week also.
@bizwaxzion Thanks for stepping up with that advice.
@StoneMan You schooled me bro, I dont do glass. I really like the simplicity of the orbitor. It doesnt take a whole lot of room and it just works. I should get one, whats the cost for such a device? Some of the Katalox pieces have a bit of curl in em, when it shows its a neat look.
@slozukimc Good looking rig you got there, I am glad to see you are enjoying it as well. Believe it or not Redwood burl is still one of the least desirable species next to cherry.
Hope I have covered all and wish everyone a great rest of your weekend. Take care!
