Made a few tools.

Cranked up the wood lathe and made two rammers and two risers from a pear tree branch.

Also made a flask and a riddle with 1/4 inch screen.  Only useful in removing gravel from sand.  Need to make ones with finer mesh. Going to try window screen to get facing sand.







Swapped the Ben Franklin TrimOsaw for a metal cutting band saw and some cash.  It was a neat saw the bandsaw was a better fit for my immediate needs.


I have succeed in making a few pounds of clay.   This would be much easier if one staggered the tubs so that the first could be drained into the next by opening a tap or cap.  Maybe do 3 tubs instead of two.  May give that a try just for kicks and giggles.
