Christmas Tree

[DiscoStu]

Will my Christmas tree be of any use for turning? I wondered about a small keepsake box, pens or a tee light holder. Just wondered if it was worth keeping the trunk for any of that?

I guess you've got nothing to lose by trying. Gut feel says probably not but will cost you nothing other than a bit of time to try!

Make sure that your tools are sharp.

Take a look at this Pen to see what a Christmas tree looks like on a pen
