First Peppermill (sort of)

[Ptolemy]

This is my first completed peppermill. The wood is tambootie and the peppermill is eight inches tall. I really enjoy these. Last year everyone got pens for gifts, this year I'm seeing peppermills in their future.

This was actually the second peppermill I started but the first one sits unfinished. Several people commented that the shape of the first was a bit phalic so it sits half done in the workshop.

Comments welcome and thanks for looking.

Nice Brad, I've kinda gotten into pepper mills myself... in my area the market for the pens is a little slow, so I'm trying other things... Pepper mills are lots of fun. I make 3 different styles.. the standards like yours, and two different types of crush/grind.. one is a shaftless crush/grind that takes 3 pieces to work.. so far I've been successful with one.. I like the crush/grind styles because they are a little more forgiving on size than the standards are.

Tambootie is a nice wood.. I like what you did.

Very nice work. That should hold up for a long time, as tambotie is such a hard wood.
