Tom, first off, way cool stoppers. I do not think i have ever seen any like them. Very good photos also. Second, welcome to the site from far West Kentucky. Be sure and check out the library link in the upper right of the homepage. The people here are the best informed and sharingist people I know of anywhere.

Welcome to the fun. Great looking stoppers. Is that leather wrapped around them?

Welcome from another Nor. Cal'r. Those are nice looking stoppers, have you been turning long?

Not sure what part of no. Cal. you are in, I'm East of Sac., but it sounds like the Bay Area has a pretty active chapter.

Is this a trick question I have never been ask that before.
If it's not you need to head south for the winter & get a little sunshine:biggrin:
I get up your way a couple times a year - we have a daughter in Bothell.
