Cool project, davemartin88!

Turned 3 bowls on my lathe. European walnut, Zebrawood and Myrtle.

I see those big briskets at Costco - darn I want to try again, but I feel like they are just mocking me!

If you want pulled beef, try a chuck roast. Need to get the internal temp to about 195F.

I smoked two small ones on Thursday, and we are having them today.

As far as briskets go, I did one a while back. It came out OK, but the chuck roast actually taste better!

Very nice bowls Ronstar.

Thanks - I like making bowls - can make a bowl in one day - matches my senior citizen attention span

In memory of 9/11, I whipped up an American flag from some scrap 2x4's.

Nice, and it's great that you did it correctly.
Our neighbor has one on the front lawn, but must think there are only 15 States and 7 original colonies

I love clams & oysters but the quality and condition varies greatly even from hi-dollar internet vendors. I saw one of these at a fish market once and since I could not find any to buy I made one;

A 12 volt Rule submersible bilge pump and a PVC ring with lots of holes drilled. I make up "sea water" with purified water (no chlorine or chloramines) and sea salt at the proper concentration (4oz/gallon) and it allows them to open and re-hydrate / flush toxins for 3 to 4 hours before eating. Works real good too;

Grillin' oysters with garlic butter and Tabasco - very tasty!

RobbieB, nice work and use of skills to make something useful! I'm not an oyster fan but sounds like this contraption does the job! Thanks for sharing.

+1. Skills to make great food are by far the most important skills IMO

Nope - only made the flag. I picked up the sign from a vendor at a flea market or Nascar race - I can't remember.

Can you please start an instagram account so I can look at these cookies every day. They make me so happy! You are an amazing artist

Jana, thanks for kind words

 

[spncity]

It would be almost a crime to eat these beautiful cookies. But I should like to try.

Bumping up topic with cookies again

I made "fence facades" for the front of the garage to replace the rotting bricks and mortar that was there before.

Took out the fireplace, does that count as a creative project ?
