    Shaun,
    Very nice stoppers. I have to ask, what is the banksia pod turning? It looks like a candle holder, but I can't tell.

    The banksia pod is a small dry flower vase or candle holder. Some of the holes are filled allthough hard to see in photo.

    Nice turnings. Your pics are a shade too dark on my screen but I too struggle with pics.
