This elegant bit holder was brought in.  Will the creator of this step forward, as no name appears in the notes?

Above is Denny’s monkey pod bowl, definitely nothing to sneeze at (those who were there know what I am talking about.)  Finished with Oil and varnish.

Paul said his table was finished with a 50/50 mix of shellac for a first coat and then varnish.  I am thinking he diluted ready mixed shellac 50% with alcohol, but I’m not sure.  Regardless, the table looks pretty good.

John presented progress on his wooden clock along with the templates we used to cut the wooden gears.  John also brought in some ice cream scoops, a spalted wood bowl, and a bowl made of red cedar.
