Woodturners. Lets see those woodturnering projects

Me too. Im afraid of cutting it up though

 

Oh i should have mentioned, John Lawler puts threads occasionally on FHC to announce firewood cutting days.
He has 40 kids from ohio in town this week to split and stack. Some are building a deck and they have other projects going on also in the community.

 

And I am hoping you are my Secret Santa again this year!!

 

Fired up the lathe today. Made a cute little curly maple bowl out of a piece of firewood a coworker found in his stack. I used WoodTurnerinPA 's bandsaw (since mine hasn't come in yet) to cut it into a bowl blank.
(About 7"x2" finished)

 

Beautiful!

 

Amazing what you find in the firewood pile.

Beautiful grain!

What kind of bandsaw?

 

I tell my turning students when they make a mistake on a piece from a firewood pile, "you just make a designer piece of firewood"! That is one beautiful bowl for sure.

 

My BIL has the Laguna 1412. I ordered the 14/BX in 220v

 

I ordered it in November and they said it was backordered till the end of January.
Well... the end of January is here and no call yet. I paid for it up front to get the sale price.

 

Thanks, FP, JW, JD for the kind words.

 

Very nice, beautiful bowl.

 

My folks a one time had salad bowls like that. Nice job Tim.

 

Thank you Jill.

 

Playing with some flat wood today. (Poplar)



I'm not much of a wood worker but had some fun trying. Lol

Took some time but managed to line the grain up from first piece to last

 

Great job. Lining up the grain does take time. Looks really good

 

And one for Miss July.

 

Another great job

 

Those look great.

 

fishingpol I had a couple cones made for krumkake. Used cherry burl for them. First time looking thru this thread. Had to post a pic of the cookies made with them.
