Temo had been spending most all of his time in his shop working on one project or another that struck his fancy at the time, however there was one project that he spent most of his time on. Day in and day out, he was spending all day in his shop working on this one project. Spending so much time in his shop and so little interaction with anyone else that was not Jace or their children that the knowledge that there was a pack out there had temporarily left his memory.

If anyone had entered his shop over the past couple of weeks, they would see a lot of pictures hanging on some of the walls, mainly in one corner where there was a new wood contraption taking shape. Many of the pictures were torn from books and magazines while others were hand drawn scrawls that Temo had sketched, some of parts and some of the project showing the parts and how they fit together. Some of the pages that were tacked to the walls had "Spring pole Lathe" printed on them with the pictures.

Now, if anyone entered, they would see a black furred Luperci with dust and shavings in his fur busy at the lathe with wood chips flying and dropping onto the ground as he practiced his technique and timing of making the cut as he pushed down on the pedal. The walls still had pictures hanging on them, but these were pictures of using lathes and the carving tools that had replaced the pictures and drawings of the lathe. On a counter within easy reach were a number of long carving tools that were similar to the one that was currently in Temo's hands and making the chips shaping the round piece of wood that was fastened into the lathe. Near by were several chairs and stools with missing or newly replaced rungs or legs that were turned on the lathe.
