    A little pocket and small crotch bowl from a couple pieces of Hawthorn I had left over from making bells. The pod let has a wax finish on the bulb and an oil finish on the stem and top, oil on the bowl.

    Was asked by one of the office girls at work if I could make a cheeseboard for to gift as a Christmas present to her brother, I immediately knew what to use, when I moved in there where several old style school desks with the top that lifts up in the garage so i kept the flat tops, pretty sure...

    You've nothing to lose by trying it, I've turned plenty of crotch bowls, mostly natural edge and whole log keeping the centres of the log in the piece and none of them have really moved much, it depends how long it has been sat around waiting to be used I guess.

    Tough one to call, at the end of the day's its all down to personal preference, I think the inclusion void on the base would be fine as it is or filled, the one on the side (personally) would irritate me no end regardless what I did with it short of using it as an opening and turning it into a...

    Log lamp...

    If you are going to dry it in your oven it will take a lot longer than 30 minutes, start by weighing it, then put it in for the 30mins at 100C but keep checking on it every few minutes to make sure it hasn't caught fire, let it cool and weigh it again, repeat until the weight loss stops...

    Something exciting this way comes

    Wow, some of those prices are really low, I'm surprised you didn't sell out, you have some very nice work. The good thing about the shop is that I don't need to be there, the Crafters Collective who run it handle the day to day stuff and theyre open 9 to 5 Monday to Saturday and 10 to 4 on...

    I've seen someone make these but instead of a point to spin on they turned a concave and glued a marble into the base, looked really good.

    As I said, I don't have time for another option, I knew it wouldn't look great but I need it done today ready to take to the shop tomorrow, luckily I found a drill bit that left the hole a tight fit for the nail so haven't glued them in so I can remove them later if I want to. Doesn't look so...

    Absolutely, no way I could drive them in straight or without the wood splitting and falling apart, I'll cut some ridges in the nail, drill the holes and use some 5 minute epoxy, although with current temps in the makerspace it's more like 5 hour epoxy, shouldn't need much, the drill bit is...

    A display stand made from a spalted sycamore log I've had sat at the back of the makerspace, not 100% finished but the turning is done, made because I need height for my display in the shop opening on Saturday, the plan initially is to hang tree ornaments from it, I can fit 2 lots of 12 around...
