Hi Marty,

Thanks Dave!

Here is a little Hollow form. 6" dia by 5" tall. Curly maple, poplar, cherry, beach, ebony.

Thanks for the post. I used to make mallets from bowling pins. Then the local sheriff discovered they makegreat targets. Then the bowling alley started charging for them. Then the pinsI did buy were...
I got this lathe about a month ago and love it. Fit and finish is very good. I used it to make my 2012 ornaments.
