    @jamigibbs A few days ago, I suggested white drawing leads for marking dark wood for #woodworking but noted that I hadn't actually tried them yet. In the spirit of putting my money where my mouth is, I ordered a pack to try on a scrap of walnut. 12 leads for US$6.99, about $0.58 each.Top part of the photo is the lead, bottom part is chalk.They're ... meh. Not as good as I'd hoped. Slightly crumbly if you press too hard. More visible than my wife's fabric marking pencils, but not as good as chalk. Doesn't fill a knife line as well as chalk.Could work, but chalk is probably better if you're OK with thick lines or fill a knife line..

    Ta-da!It took me 2 weeks of hard work, but it's finally done!(The frame uses 2 dowels per corner for the joinery. No miter joints because I haven't done it yet and chickened out.)Hopefully my bedroom won't be as cold during this winter. ⛄#Woodworking #DIY

    Called the bowl done today, after getting tired of the long cure times with Tried and True Varnish Oil and switching to Birchwood Casey TruOil gunstock finish on the outside. I think it came out looking pretty good. #WoodTurning #Resin

    Working on a long, narrow door to cover a narrow closet in our house where we keep sheets for bedding. The closet has a curved top. I’m using parts of a chair I got at a thrift store that perfectly matches this curve and plan to veneer it. We want to allow for air flow so this seems like a good solution. #handtools #woodworking
