Here are a few items I've been working on lately. All comments welcomed, that's how I improve. [8D]
This is my first wood bottle stopper, and my first attempt at captive rings. I don't have the proper tools for the rings, made them with o-ring picks. The wood is unknown, and the finish is BLO.
This is a nice hunk of Koa I got from BigRob during his BBQ. I originally had a different shape for this one, but didn't like it and converted it to a captive ring as well. Couldn't sand the inside of the ring as much as I wanted, or the ring would have been oversized and fallen off. The finish is BLO. The part I like the most about this one is the knot that is in both the ring and the body, and the fact that it hasn't cracked yet!
My first top. Made with Redheart and the same unknown wood as the first bottle stopper. Finish is BLO. This is a Christmas gift for my nephew.
Last up is my first mirror compact. This is done in Corian. Sorry about the blurry photo, I had trouble getting the camera to focus on this.
Thanks for looking!
