I needed to get a handle on my woodturning around the holiday season, so I turned a bunch of flippers. At about this same time my "merchandiser" (director of entertainment and finance aka wife) sold 25 stoppers! Between the handles and the stoppers I got a lot of practice-these were the "leftovers" that were promptly "gifted" by the merchandiser. Here is a sample of the stoppers-you've seen them before, only the forms have changed slightly.

Skew you, they're from Texas

Flippers are for flippin steaks on the grill-I suppose you could use them for toast in a skillet but hey! This thread, along with watching an Alan Lacer video on skews while listening to a Ray Wylie Hubbard song, and being a beginner turner and afraid and ashamed of the skew it got me to thinkin... ...so I went to the garage and made some more stoppers using only a skew (and a drill for the inset). So, skew you, they're from Texas... ...OK, it helps if you have heard the Ray Wylie Hubbard song "Skew you".
