I know that without you all I would not be having all the fun turning that I am. And the new year started off with a bang with a great demo by Bob Eberhardt on bowl saving equipment. Thanks much Bob. As we look forward to 2019, we have several events coming up. 1. "Feed My People " make sure that you get your bowls turned in by the Feb. meeting. And if you can donate that one "Special "item for the silent auction. 2. "National Chainsaw Championship " We will be having a booth again this year so keep Aug. 1-4 open to help out at the booth. We will have more info later. It was brought to my attention that several people have not paid membership dues since 2017, If you are receiving this news letter and are no longer interested in keeping your membership up please contact Randy Patzke at [email protected] and Tom Leonard at tl9597@ charter.net so you can be removed from the mailing list. To all the rest, Dues Are Due !!! We soon will be adding a new midsize lathe to our shop made pos- sible by the awesome memorial gift from the family of Allen Otto. That's all now, stay warm and let the chips fly... Prez Duane JANUARY MEETING HIGHLITES 3 Notes from meeting as best remembered, all officers agreed to another year so all were reelected. We will be exhibiting at the National Chain saw event on Aug. 1- 4 of this year. Barry Grill has turned blanks for the pen turning and Mark Palmer will be gluing then up to be ready. We will again accept items to be sold as a club fund raiser at the event. Bob Eberhardt did a great job demonstrating the "One Way" bowl saving equipment, very much appreciated. Bob Eberhardt will be teaching a beginner turning class for 5 Wednesdays starting Jan. 23rd. If interested contact Bob at [email protected] Beginner Turning Class in January Bob Eberhardt will be teaching 5 Wednesday classes on turning basics starting on Wednesday night 1-23- 19. We have openings for 6 members. The cost of the class is $15 which covers all supplies used. Classes will run for about 4 hours starting about 6pm. Anybody is welcome to come to these classes. Contact: Bob Eberhardt at [email protected] if you are interested in attending with your name, email, and phone number. January Demonstration 4 Bowl Saver Bob Eberhardt Note: A writeup of this demonstration was not done. Our apologes to Bob for this oversight. What is a Bowl Saver? Also known as a Core Saver, these varied turning tools enable the turner to utilize the entire bowl blank by cutting out the center of the blank for a bowl which would have otherwise been waste. 5 6 WOOD CHARACTERISTICS 7 JANKA HARDNESS In the pen woods of the month Janka Hardness has been left out in the criteria the Wood Database as well as Average Dry Weight, Specific Gravity, Modulus of Rupture, Elastic Modulus, Crushing strength and Shrinkage. Reviewing the meaning of each of these it became apparent that even though each has little useful meaning to woodturners, it can be useful to woodworking which many group members participate. Janka Hardness seems to be the more useful of these wood characteristics because there is a lot of information and most understandable. The other characteristics will be treated as short subjects. Janka Hardness is useful in determining how well a wood can with- stand dents, dings and wear. It indirectly predicts the difficulty in nailing, screwing, sanding and sawing a wood. One of its useful- ness is to determine the hardness of a wood to be used for a floor. From the Wood Database: Technically: “The actual number listed in the wood profile is the amount of pounds-force (lbf) or newtons (N) required to imbed a .444″ (11.28 mm) diameter steel ball into the wood to half the ball’s diameter. This number is given for wood that has been dried to a 12% moisture content, unless otherwise noted.” As an example:” For reference, White Oak has a Janka hardness of 1,360 lbf (6,000 N), while the super-hard Lignum Vitae has a hard- ness of an astounding 4,500 lbf (20,000 N). (Who could imagine a wood species that is over three times harder than White Oak?) On the lower end of the spectrum, Basswood has a hardness of around 410 lbf (1,800 N).” https://www.wood-database.com/wood-articles/janka-hardness/ From Wikipedia: “The hardness of wood varies with the direction of the wood grain. Testing on the surface of a plank, perpendicular to the grain, is said to be of "side hardness". Testing the cut surface of a stump is called a test of "end hardness". Side hardness may be further di- vided into "radial hardness" and "tangential hardness", although the differences are minor and often neglected. See January 2018 The results are stated in various ways, which can lead to confu- 8 sion, especially when the actual units employed are often not at- tached. Overall, the resulting measure is always one of force. In the United States, the measurement is in pounds-force (lbf). In Sweden it is in kilograms-force (kgf), and in Australia, either in newtons (N) or kilonewtons (kN). This confusion is greatest when the results are treated as units, for example "660 Janka".[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test From Answers.com There are exotic woods (imported, that is) taken from the Amazon and milled in Brazil that are 80 times harder than oak; such as Ipe (Tabebuia) and Jatoba or Guapinol or Algarrado (Hymenaea cour- baril). Bamboo laminate has become more and more popular for flooring since the turn of the 21st century. Lignum vitae has a density rating of 1.23 grams per cubic centimeter, as compared to oak; which comes in at .65 grams per cubic centimeter, or Balsa wood; which comes in at 0.16 grams per cubic centimeter. Density relates to durability, but availability makes oak more widely used than Lignum vitae. This also explains the popularity of tile floors. www.answers.com/Q/ What_is_the_most_durable_hardwood_flooring Woodturning Video of Interest Mike Peace a well known woodturner has an interesting video on turning and gluing tips in relation to the importance of considera- tion of grain orientation. Somewhat basic but a pearl or two of useful information can be found in it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDaSD3S1pCY 9 Barry Grill with dyed deep hollow urn 10 Mark Palma with many dyed bowls which will be contributed to Feed My People event 11 Above: Mark Palma with large bowl and small bowl.

Piptadenia suaveolens) Distribution: Central America and Brazil Tree Size: 65-100 ft (20-30 m) tall, 2-3 ft (.6-1.0 m) trunk diam- eter Janka Hardness: 1,550 lbf (6,880 N) On a scale between 22 and 5060lbs) Color/Appearance: Heartwood tends to be a golden to reddish brown. Sapwood is a lighter brown color, and is not always clearly distinct from heartwood. Sapwood may be over 2.5 inches (8 cm) thick. Grain/Texture: Grain tends to be interlocked and/or wavy. Regu- larly spaced large open pores give a coarse but even texture. Endgrain: Diffuse-porous; large pores in no specific arrangement; mostly solitary, with some radial multiples of 2-3; mineral deposits occasionally present; growth rings indistinct or distinct from seem- ingly marginal parenchyma; very inconspicuous rays not visible without lens; parenchyma primarily vasicentric or aliform. Rot Resistance: Timborana is generally regarded as durable or 19 moderately durable regarding decay resistance, though it is susceptible to insect attack. Workability: Timborana has a fairly high blunting effect on cutters due to its silica content. The wood is also somewhat difficult to sur- face, owing to its interlocked grain and density. Timborana glues and finishes well. Odor: No characteristic odor. Allergies/Toxicity: Although there have been no adverse health effects associated with Timborana, some species within the Piptadenia genus have been reported to cause eye, nose, and throat irritation.

    FEBRUARY 2019 What’s Inside PREZ SEYZ Page 2 GALLERY OF BOWLS Page 4 TEN HARDEST WOODS Page 12 USE OF SPACER BLOCKS WITH PENS Page 15 PEN WOOD OF MONTH Page 18 Purpleheart Tree PREZ SEYZ 2 Hey woodturners, How you doing? What can I say, just keep shoveling! So much for a mild win- ter. As most of you are aware, the February meeting was canceled because of weath- er. If you didn't get the email notice, I apologize. It may have gone out on an older mailing list. So that being a situa- tion, if you need to send info out to club members, make sure you have the latest list. You can get it from Randy. If you have bowls yet for "Feed My People " please contact me at [email protected] and I will get them from you. Each of you who are signed up to do a demo at a club meeting, please just move your demo forward one month. If that can't work, let me know. We are always looking for new ideas for demos for club meetings. If you would like a demonstration on a given area of wood turning, let me know and we will try to get in in the schedule. For those of you who like to turn natural edge bowls, now is the time to cut the trees before the sap starts to flow. The bark is less likely to loosen. Obviously because on no meeting this month our letter will be somewhat shorter. I give Tom credit for his creativity in making it informative, Thanks Tom ! Well again as Bugs Bunny sez, "That's all folks" Prez Duane.

McLean2 Introduction Uses: tree lawn 3–4 feet wide; tree lawn 4–6 feet wide; tree lawn > 6 ft wide; sidewalk cutout (tree pit); parking lot Lignum vitae is an extremely slow-growing broadleaf island < 100 sq ft; parking lot island 100–200 sq ft; parking evergreen which ultimately reaches 30 feet in height and lot island > 200 sq ft; container or planter; specimen; deck casts light shade, but few people have seen plants of this or patio; Bonsai; highway median size because it is not grown in the trade. Most are seen 8 to 12 feet tall with a beautiful array of multiple trunks and a rounded canopy much like that of a mature crape-myrtle. The one to two-inch-long, leathery, dark green leaves are joined at many times throughout the year by the production of large clusters of bluish purple flowers, the old flowers fading to a light silvery-blue and creating a shimmering haze over the rounded canopy. These flowers are followed by small, heart-shaped, yellow orange berries, appearing on the tree at the same time as the bluish purple flowers and creating a lovely sight.

  • Is Guaiacum Sanctum Effective Against Arthritis? an Ethnobotany
    Is Guaiacum sanctum Effective Against Arthritis? An Ethnobotany Case by Eric Ribbens, Barbra Burdett, and Angela Green Department of Biological Science Western Illinois University Part I—Anecdotal Evidence Dr. Beth Tonoany is a tropical population ecologist who has been studying an unusual tree, Guaiacum sanctum, which once grew throughout the dry tropical forests of Central America as well as on some of the Caribbean islands. Guaiacum sanctum produces a wood called lignum vitae, and is known in Costa Rica and other Spanish-speaking countries as guayacan reál. The wood is extremely heavy because it contains extensive deposits of resin (Howes, 1949) and it will sink if placed in water (Wilson and Eisner, 1968). During World War I and II it was extensively harvested for use in the ship-building industry because the wood, which does not split easily, is self- lubricating due to its high resin content. The wood is very durable, and was in high demand for constructing bearing sleeves to support ship propellor Figure 1: Seeds of shafts (Scurlock, 1987). It has also been used for making railroad ties Guaiacum sanctum (Woods, 1951). Dr. Tonoany has been studying one of the last remaining populations of lignum vitae in the Palo Verde Nature Preserve in northwestern Costa Rica. Probably fewer than 100 trees remain in Costa Rica, most in the Palo Verde Nature Preserve. Her research has included tracking seedlings and saplings, locating and measuring adult trees, and interviewing some of the local Ticos to learn about the tree’s past history in Costa Rica. The tree, while rare now due to the dramatic conversion of tropical deciduous forest in Costa Rica into pasturelands and to selective logging of the tree for its valuable wood, was once more common, and many of the older Ticos remember that the saplings were used to make cattle switches because of the strong flexible wood in the saplings.

The assessment includes a baseline for each variable followed by a discussion on impacts on the physical, natural, human and social environments. However, since the drilling is taking place in an elevated area on St. George’s Hill, in Zone V, which was evacuated after the 1995 eruption and has remained a restricted area, there are limited human and environmental impacts expected from the drilling of MON-3. Most of the vegetation is secondary forest and scrub. No sensitive or endangered flora and fauna are at risk. The hillside vegetation was once covered in ash. The Belham Valley forms a low lying area north of St. George’s Hill. This has been heavily inundated with volcano muds left over from lahars. Importantly, the drill site was selected not only for its geothermal potential, but also because it’s elevated provides protection from lava flows which may arise from future eruptions.

  • Guaiacum Sanctum Country – MEXICO Original Language – English
    NDF WORKSHOP CASE STUDIES WG 1 – Trees CASE STUDY 7 Guaiacum sanctum Country – MEXICO Original language – English NON-DETRIMENT FINDINGS REPORT ON GUAIACUM SANCTUM IN MEXICO AUTHORS: Leonel López-Toledo David F.R.P. Burslem Miguel Martínez-Ramos Alejandra García-Naranjo I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON THE TAXA 1. BIOLOGICAL DATA 1.1. Scientific and common names Guaiacum sanctum, Linnaeus (1753). Most authors identify four or six species in the genus Guaiacum. Four different synonyms have been recognized for G. sanctum: 1.Guaiacum multijugum Stokes (1812). 2.Guaiacum guatemalense Planch. ex Vail & Rydberg likely to be an hybrid between G. sanctum and G. coulteri (Porter 1972). 3. Guaiacum sloanei Shuttl. ex A. Gray (Gray 1897, Vail & Rydberg 1910). 4.Guaiacum verticale Orteg. (Gray 1897, Vail & Rydberg 1910). Guaiacum sanctum is commonly called lignum vitae in English, and guayacan or palo santo in Spanish. Guaiacum coulteri, a very similar species to G. sanctum, is also called guayacan or lignum vitae. 1.2. Distribution Guaiacum sanctum is found in Mexico, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, the United States (Florida), Costa Rica, Guatemala, Bahamas, Haiti, Cuba, Honduras, El Salvador, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Turks & Caicos Islands. In some of these countries, G. sanctum has become endangered or is virtually extinct. The Mexican populations cover a greater portion of the species’ natural range than those in any other country. There is no data available for the global population. However, a worldwide analysis of the tropical dry forest estimated a remaining range of 131,087 km2 for North and Central America including Mexico. In general this coincides with presence information of G.

  • Turning Threads in Wood -- It's Easier Than You Think
    Turning Threads In Wood -- It's Easier Than You Think David Gould I first became interested in thread chasing while watching the Mike Mahoney video “Hollow Forms And Urns – A Workshop”, in which Mike threaded a disk of boxwood that became a collar insert for an urn, into which a blackwood finial was later threaded. When I spent a week in Mike’s workshop in Provo, Utah, last December, I pressed him to include thread chasing among the projects we would attempt. We wound up tackling thread chasing on our last afternoon and never got around to making inserts. We simply covered making inside and outside threads. Tonight, the demonstration will cover the basics and some additional projects that can be accomplished using these skills. Materials: Good threading can only be accomplished on woods that are dense, dry, stable and close grained. Most of the native woods we are accustomed to working with (Maple, Black Walnut, Cherry, Box Elder and others) are not suitable for thread chasing as they are too soft or too brittle. Woods that are good for threading: Boxwood Lignum Vitae African Blackwood Pink Ivory Osage Orange There are other exotic woods that thread well but the above are the more well known. There are synthetic materials that can be used for practice: Corian Resin blanks (pen) The wood used must be dry so that there is no later movement which would result in threads that would bind. Specific Gravity: The measure of the “denseness” of wood is its Specific Gravity. Specific Gravity is the comparison of the weight of a cubic foot of water at sea level (which is 62.4 lbs/cu.ft.) to the weight of a cubic foot of wood.
