SPWoods

I use a hydralic lift cart as a table for my lathe and for my planer. I store the bench top machines in cabinets in my 3 car garage shop at the lowest height of the cart, slide them over onto the cart, then raise them to height and into working position and where I can connect to my dust collection system.

On reading this article I thought I would relate a recent experience drivimg up through Northern California to Oregon on a return from vacation along the coast route. I stopped at place selling burls, the guy started telling me how he gets wood to spalt using mayonaise. I didn't get all the details as I was not interested in spalting my own wood. I think the gist of it is that he slathers it on logs after they are cut, then puts the slabs back together loosely, then leaves them to spalt. (I don't know how long) He said he buys the mayonaise from a restuarant supply company.
