I finally had a chance to sneak in some shop time. It's been over a week since I've turned anything, so I just needed a quick little turning fix.
I started looking for a blank to turn, just wanted something on the smaller side so I could put a gouge to wood and get it turned, sanded and finished in a couple hours. What I found was what I think is the 2nd half of a beech spindle blank that I got from Baxter Smith last year in San Jose.
I went with a small hollow form with some branding and gesso. It's 4 3/4" x 3 1/2" and finished with antique oil.
