Beeg is on to something. Your old Firefox profile was probably incompatible with the new Firefox so you probably landed in a new profile with the old one still there on your hard drive for you to fish out of the right directory to manually recover whatever you like from it.

You only need to tell who to share them when you get the notification that they are ready to be shared. Having them in google plus also makes it easy to participate in...

Not being a well experienced 'turner' myself I must ask if the use of a skew as demonstrated in the last video prior to the workpiece being 'round' is either typical or a reasonable thing to do. I usually get it round with a gouge before reaching for a skew. I used what I saw the majority of wood t...

Wood mallet video is up.... http://youtu.be/eh3kPfBeW0M Two new magic wands up next, and this time i started with the idea to make them from the start.

The mallet is now done, photos and video to come as well... mistakes and all (and there were a lot of mistakes -- I'm not even yet sure how to use the skew chisel correctly on something like this -- though it worked well for my magic wand, so I had to fix mistakes from each time I tried).

Is the next project going to be a fat baseball bat:p Close! It's going to be a big fat mallet.
