Welcome to the forum.

What tools are you using Michael?

Thanks for the greetings everyone. I haven't had much time to do a whole lot recently, but I should be able to start posting pictures of new stuff soon. I also have a collaboration with a fellow forum member that I will do a WIP thread on, but that will be a few weeks from now.

What tools are you using Michael?

I currently use a grizzly grinder, drill press, miter saw, angle grinder, and determination.

Soon. I am in the middle of a move currently so I haven't been able to get much done. I will be back in the saddle shortly.

Here is a rehandle I did for Daveb.

Malachite and Desert Ironwood with a black spacer.

Looks great. Is that real malachite?
If so, how easy is it to work with?

Thanks. I am not sure. Daveb provided the materials, but I think it is the composite. It was pretty easy to work with.
