Or at least it brings us closer so that we recognize that we do have a history ...that we did indeed come from someone somewhere. Thank you for sharing your story.

Thanks so much for your kind words.<br />And that's a good idea to ask about care of the wood. I'll ask my Opa next time I talk to him.<br />Thanks!<br /><br />Hey Tony. Cool! You could make your own sauerkraut pounder...or other stuff too. :)<br />I didn't know what a pole-lathe was, so I looked it up and found this <a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/A-modern-build-of-a-medieval-spring-pole-lathe/" rel="nofollow">neat article</a>.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14504083012497351241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6094253214225998105.post-54648516711458492292009-10-14T20:27:59.994-04:002009-10-14T20:27:59.994-04:00Wow.

This post has renewed my love for woodworking...so much so that I am going to dust off the old lathe and start turning some stuff. I'm also thinking of building a pole-lathe because they don't need electricity!Tony R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07769062503314311880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6094253214225998105.post-61050608212762298562009-10-14T15:00:51.111-04:002009-10-14T15:00:51.111-04:00What a lovely connection of generational valuing o...What a lovely connection of generational valuing of this wonderful tool. It is indeed a handsome utensil, and should last many more generations. Ask your Opa how to keep the wood of the head from drying out and checking.<br />I love the wonder and reverent appreciation inherent in your writing. I do check in daily, with pleasure.
