no no no the lid was just wrong for the pot. Nice lid though. So did a different one.

better match for the pot I think. But I'll give the clients the choice. Hoping they agree with me, because it turns out the first lid is perfect for my big Christmas mug that steph gets out every year.

Beautiful work 😍
For almost a week now I've spent the afternoons and all weekend looking after a dog SWMBO is dog-sitting while she goes to her PA job for the family she works for, it's all paid work so she can't afford to turn it down but it's frustrating for me because it means I can't get out to the workshop and make SWMBO and a few of the teachers Christmas presents
 
A bit of awkward progress on SWMBO Xmas pressy today, worked on the attachment for the 3 oak rings, made some sketchy bandsaw cuts then turned a blank to the same size as the rings and double-sided taped some 60g paper on and created a mass of fine dust going through 4 or 5 sheets, this Oak is rock hard and quickly started to burn if i pressed too hard, lathe was at its slowest 400rpm.
Can't show what's going in the rings without spoiling secret santa but if my recipient can tell it was me that made and sent it then ill show this finished after Christmas
