You spin me right round....

Whay I got to get on my lathe today...two hours just
flew by...lol
Had a lump of beech but it had dried out and had shakes,splits
right through but it was very enjoyable..To just use the chisels and see
what effects you get...
But I think I had better take some lessons before I tackle a lamp
base like the one you had a go at..
You seem to have got the shape and form right..also as you said
it had no sanding..
Did you notice the large shakes in the base before you started to turn the
lamp or was it a surprise.

However, I was quite proud of this:

Nice lines, I knew you would start enjoying that spindle work !
