Well, I think I got doing tips down allright. Unless of course I get thrown something that resides at the nether regions of the bell curve! Been working on ferrules and at the suggestion of another member, got busy on working with Juma. Stuff seems to cut pretty easy. Although I do polish my cutter to 16000 grit on a shapton stone! Threaded it with the unique tenon threader at .280 and bored the ferrule our to .263 Tapped it with a bottoming tap and all seemed to work out pretty well!

By the way, thats a cherry dowel! Probably need to get some maple!
