Here are a couple of items that I did recently.
1. A cup and ball made out of mesquite and poplar.
2. A top made out of osage orange. This turned out pretty good except the wood was a bit wet and the top developed two cracks in it but it still works fine.
3. An eggish shaped item. I wanted to try segmented turning and glued up a couple pieces of mesquite and canary wood. I need to get a band saw in order to make smaller segments. These are about 3/4 of an inch in width. A bit of a pain to cut when using a 10 inch miter saw. I would have liked to make the segments around 1/4 of an inch in width.
4. A bottlestopper made out of bloodwood. I have made about 10 bottlestopper tops and this is one of the better ones. When I get around to it, I will post pictures of the others.
Woodturning is very addictive. I am having so much fun doing this. For only doing this for about 6 months, I think I am doing an ok job.
Enjoy!
