Our 50th Anniversary
« on: Mar 10, 2021, 05:09 AM »
My Bride and I will be celebrating our 50th this July. We’ve rented a nice cottage on Keuka Lake for the week. I asked my Son if he would perform the re-affirmation ceremony so......he went and got ordained as a minister.



He’s just too much like me to explain.

This is going to be fun.

That we do! We haven’t taken any kind of vacation in a couple years. Should be. Lot of fun. Love Keuka Lake.

Thanks ,
Bob

Congrats to you and your bride, that's one heck of a milestone. My bride and I will be doing the same in June 2022 if we are still alive.

So, I’m gearing up to make our wedding rings for our anniversary. First attempt is in the works.


 Phone kind of focused on my dust collection port and not the ring. Just received the wet sanding pads to take the finish to 12,000g. The test ring is a piece of  Brazilian Ebony I had. Also picked up a couple blocks to play with. Bolivian Rosewood and Purple Heart.

Ultimately, mine will be of a piece of Gaboon Ebony I have stashed. My Bride’s is still undecided.
More to come.

Thanks. Just getting started, but I like where it’s going. I’ve always loved turning things on the lathe for my Bride. This is something very special.
