day 2

Pretty busy day today...

-worked probably around 5 hours total

-woke up and went to the woodshop to finish up my design, as well as make some sample pieces to work on my leg designs....all in all took about 2 hours.

-George Emeny had a tree he needed cut down, which was made of maple, and therefore provides me with a large supply of lumber to practice my turnings on, this took an hour and a half.

-Then, at around 6:30 I met with Jon, my sponsor, who went over basically everything I would need to know make the stool. We made a makeshift steady rest to reduce vibration on the legs, and then reviewed my drawings, they need some work....

tomorrow will include some practice turning and chopping up the tree.
