From John O’Neil

 The school staff greatly appreciated the turned items given to them by the members of Western New York Woodturners II.  Before I finished the paperwork for the upcoming year the front office staff was having a Yo-Yo competition.  Many thanks to those members who donated items and helped ensure another year of using the school.

DEMO

ELMER’S CORNER: Bargain Screw Lube

Found in Oct/Nov issue of American Woodworker.

A toilet bowl floor gasket is an excellent lubricant for screws- it’s much more slippery than paraffin or soap. It’s very soft, so all you have to do to coat a screw is to push it into the ring, and one gasket will last for years. They can be found in hardware and home center stores.
