Christmas ornaments

[Woodchipper]

Some basic ornaments from Woodcraft kits. The one with the step design was an accident. I was taking down the wood with a 1/4 inch parting tool when a stroke of genius hit me. Due to the infrequency, I have very few bruises from it. Anyway, left to right: cherry, unknown, unknown. These are an example of the "raid the scrap bin." Finish is three coats of wipe on poly. Will have a finishing question on another forum.

There are no accidents - the wood just tells you it wants to be something else

Right. All I did was turn off all the wood that didn't look like an ornament. Getting back onto the shop after a long hiatus (that's a word I learned years ago).

Those look great. I enjoy turning stoppers & ornaments because they are quick & easy and no shape is wrong.

Have some bottle stoppers that need completing. I have seen some really funky designs and materials, especially synthetics, that are unique.
Edgar, thanks.

I like the different designs, especially since I'm not very artistic. Most of the ornaments I've turned recently have the same basic shape, so this gives me some inspiration. Thanks for posting.
