Michael Where in the world do you live?
When there is a will there is Always a way!  Wood is expensive, (even fire 
wood?)  there are no donation centers around you.  There has to be a good 
source of some kind of turning meteral in your area.  I've read a lot about 
alternative wood turning ,  One man used alabaster, (this is the stone that 
Gypsum / drywall is made form.) another man uses Epoxies and what ever he can 
find. (corn cob, pine cone, coffee beans, even paper money...)  A lot of my 
turning supply's are used furniture part. ( Old table legs,and or table tops,)  
as well as Shipping pallets, Things that I can pick up that people no longer 
want.Ernie Conover wrote a book called the frugal wood turner. I just had to by 
the book. ( just because of the name.)  I am a Frugal wood turner... ;-)One of 
my favorite turning meterals is construction grade Plywood. One the lathe it is 
not one of the easiest woods to turn, but on the Legacy it turns nicely. (note 
make your last cut/cuts very light to get the best results.)The good thing 
about wood turning is, you have a world at your disposal, You just have to at 
times, Think out-side the box.
have a good day.C.A.G.

legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.comHello Curtis,

Thanks for sharing.  I am happy to see someone else patronizes their local 
Salvation Army Family Store.  It has become a "recommended place to shop" for 
us.  They often have some "Real Deals" (sometime brand new - or almost so) - as 
you have discovered - and very reasonably priced!

I think you idea to buy that set of bowls is BRILLIANT! (For those that speak 
the "King's English" - that means a very smart/intelligent decision.)

Have a Wonderful weekend.

Subject: today's project. Hello Everyone here is today's project, I use the 
soft touch approach to mount the bowls on to the Legacy.  I am always 
suggesting to PLAY as much as you can, and to use Cheap wood. Well today I went 
out to the Salvation Army store and bought  5 bowls for $4.00.  So since I did 
not spend a lot of money, or time making these, I was able to do some things 
that I normally would not have done otherwise.I am hoping the pictures will 
describe all the details, But if you/anyone has any questions, Please ask.
