    Very, very nice work George. My wife has been after me for a footed bowl, but I'm not going to show her this one. Don't want to raise the expectations.

    Rich,

    Ditto everyone else on the stem. But if this was the first one, then very well done indeed. All of my firsts fall into the 'prototype' category. If they come out in one piece I'm...

    In time for Easter? Well, it's not terribly complicated. The first part is just turning almost all of it. The second part is either parting it off carefully or using some jig to hold it while you...

    Nicely done

    Very nicely done Curt. I agree with the concensus here, I don't think it's a mismatch at all. And by the way, you didn't have a blow up, you had a catastrophic success.

    Size is about the only difference...

    I turn on a little Penn State lathe and I've done hollow forms. (http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=74900)

    Wow, great detail on the painting!

    Bill those look wonderful. My wife has a huge nutcracker collection and I had just promised her a turned one for next Christmas. I'll have to find that FWW article.

    My brother and I have often talked about the things you can never have too much of in a shop. My usual picks are sand paper and clamps (and turning tools and wood and well.. everything really).

    I’ve been absent for quite some time (new job, new house, new shop!). I’ve been spending all of my ‘spare’ time working on the shop (1/2 of a full basement). I purposely put off setting up the lathe...

    Yes, I've been planning the outlets so I can get an electrician in before I finish the walls. I was planning on ceiling outlets, but hadn't thought about 220 there.
