Thank you for all the nice comments. I have an order for one out of Osage Orange to be done when I get home.

Hi Pottzy, I have not heard from Mads for quite a while. I don't see any of his posts on here. When Lumberjocks got ruined, I talked to him about joining and he said he had a place to post his projects and ideas that will pay him for the posts. I have a note in to him on E mail to see how that is going.

Hi Les and Nathan. The next time I do one, I will take detailed process shots to show you what I do to get to the final kuksa. It is really easy and you don't want to get ahead of your self or get your fingers in the way of the handle stock spinning around. To finish it you will need the tables on the band saw  and belt sander to be truly square to the blade and the belt

Cheers, Jim
